"In truth, Como dominated large stretches of the match and they took the lead early on as Marc-Oliver Kempf headed in from a corner. They had other chances to score too, mainly through Nico Paz, but Mike Maignan was in world class form. Right before half-time Milan were rather gifted a route back into the game as Kempf brought Adrien Rabiot down inside the box, and Christopher Nkunku converted from 12 yards."
"Massimiliano Allegri made six changes to the starting line-up for the draw against Fiorentina on Sunday, and he made seven changes to the XI to face Como. Koni De Winter, Luka Modric, Adrien Rabiot, Youssouf Fofana, Davide Bartesaghi, Christopher Nkunku and Rafael Leao all return after the mass rotation in Florence. It took less than two minutes for Como to apply pressure on the Milan defence with a set-piece, one that wasn't properly cleared and sat up for Kempf on the edge of the box."
Como dominated large stretches of the match and took an early lead when Marc-Oliver Kempf headed in from a corner. Como created further chances, mainly through Nico Paz, but Mike Maignan produced world-class saves. Right before half-time Kempf was penalised for bringing down Adrien Rabiot and Christopher Nkunku converted the resulting penalty. Adrien Rabiot then scored early in the second half and again in stoppage time to complete the comeback. Massimiliano Allegri made seven changes to the starting XI from the previous match, with several key names returning. The win keeps Milan close to league leaders Inter and increases the gap to Napoli, who were held by Parma.
