"Allegri's stamp on Milan had become clear before meeting Napoli. A solid midfield and less goals allowed has been set up with a partially enforced 3-5-2 formation. Pulisic has continued his form through several coaches and has become Serie A's statistical offensive leader of the past two years. He scored against Napoli to continue the form. The American's goal had come after he had assisted on an early Saelemaekers goal."
"The referee added an inevitable asterisk to the game showing the red to Estupinan after awarding a penalty to Napoli. The Ecuadorean had been judged to have denied an obvious goal scoring opportunity and therefore double jeopardy was justified. Leao, back from injury, made a sub appearance and did a fine job of keeping Napoli's players on their toes when they were looking for an equalizer."
Milan climbed to the top of the table following a win over Napoli at the San Siro. Allegri has implemented a partially enforced 3-5-2 that emphasizes a solid midfield and fewer goals conceded. Christian Pulisic assisted an early Saelemaekers goal and later scored, continuing his strong two-year offensive run. Estupinan received a red card after a penalty was awarded to Napoli for denying a clear goalscoring opportunity. Leao returned from injury as a substitute and unsettled Napoli late. Tomori appears recovered from an adductor strain, while city council provisionally approved selling the San Siro site to Milan and Inter.
