"AC Milan got what they were hoping for as Inter and Napoli drew on Sunday night, but they were unable to take care of their own business. As La Gazzetta dello Sport (seen below) report, the draw against Fiorentina means that Milan remain second, three points behind the league leaders. What is worrying is that it was another game with points dropped against a relegation-threatened side, and another late equaliser needed."
"The number of points dropped to teams in the bottom half of the table rises to 13. Scudetti aren't won this way. Thursday's 1-1 draw against Genoa was well-earned, while yesterday's 1-1 had an element of luck with Brescianini and Kean coming close deep into added time. The Rossoneri had squandered three scoring opportunities in the first half, two of them glaring. Massimiliano Allegri's team have lost just one game in the league, on the opening day against Cremonese,but have drawn too many."
"Chances spurned Give-and-go is the basic basketball playbook, and Allegri - a basketball enthusiast - applied it to his new attacking duo. Pulisic passed the ball to Füllkrug, who passed it back to the American, who attacked the space in behind and got in on goal. In the first half at the Franchi, the play worked twice, with Füllkrug proving himself to be more than just a tough German centre-forward with his skilled hold-up play."
AC Milan remain second, three points behind the league leaders after a 1-1 draw with Fiorentina. Inter and Napoli drew, but Milan failed to capitalize. The draw continued a pattern of dropped points against relegation-threatened opponents, increasing points lost to bottom-half teams to 13. Milan have drawn too many matches despite losing only once this season. The team squandered multiple first-half scoring opportunities and required a late equaliser. Match management and rotation choices, including sidelining Luka Modric, have generated unease. The Pulisic–Füllkrug combination showed promise, but finishing and decision-making in key moments were inconsistent.
