"After Rafael Leao and Christian Pulisic had each missed big chances to put Milan a goal up in the first half, it looked like being another very frustrating afternoon for the Rossoneri, one which could bring a top four finish into severe jeopardy. However, goals in the 90th and 94th minutes courtesy of Strahinja Pavlovic and Rafael Leao meant that Milan emerged with all three points."
"Milan started the game in a sloppy fashion, as demonstrated by what led to the first chance in the sixth minute. A bad giveaway in midfield saw Cremonese counter with a Bonazzoli shot blocked for a corner, from which the ball fell to Vardy inside the box whose shot from close range was also stopped in the nick of time."
"Massimiliano Allegri chose to make two changes to the starting line-up from the team that lost to Parma one week ago. Strahinja Pavlovic came back into the defence, replacing Pervis Estupinan with Davide Bartesaghi pushing back up to wing-back. Youssouf Fofana came in too, taking the place of the injured Ruben Loftus-Cheek."
AC Milan defeated Cremonese 2-0 in a match where they struggled for much of the game before securing victory through late goals. Rafael Leao and Christian Pulisic squandered clear first-half opportunities that could have changed the match's trajectory. Massimiliano Allegri made two lineup changes, bringing in Strahinja Pavlovic and Youssouf Fofana. Milan's performance was initially sloppy, with Cremonese creating early chances. The Rossoneri gradually improved but remained frustrated until Pavlovic scored in the 90th minute, followed by Leao's goal in the 94th minute. The victory widened Milan's gap over fifth-placed Como to nine points, securing their top-four finish prospects.
