"AC Milan managed to weather a storm on the lake to come from behind and secure a massive win against Como. As La Gazzetta dello Sport (seen below) report, what matters is surviving a storm, knowing how to get back up, remembering to always thank the goalkeeper, and singing Le Marseillaise. Why? Because Adrien Rabiot, Mike Maignan and Christopher Nkunku all shone brightly."
"It was a big result against a Como side that played very well even hit the woodwork twice, again courtesy of Nico Paz, but lack ruthlessness among their qualities. It also means that Milan have prevented Inter from making their first real breakaway of the season. Solitary second place is confirmed, widening the gap with those behind, if we only look at the Champions League spots. Massimiliano Allegri also has his sights set on the Scudetto, and that's something that is becoming increasingly certain."
"The first half ended 1-1 and not 4-1, and there's a simple explanation: Como committed a single defensive error and were punished harshly. Van der Brempt lost the ball, then Kempf impetuously fouled Rabiot in the box. Nkunku barely converted a penalty after Leao's attempts to take it but being stopped by the bench. With half-time just around the corner, Fabregas went to the dressing room feeling a colossal injustice, due to the performance of his team not getting what it deserved."
AC Milan rallied to overcome Como, coming from behind to secure a significant victory fueled by strong performances from Adrien Rabiot, Mike Maignan and Christopher Nkunku. Como played well, hit the woodwork twice via Nico Paz, but lacked ruthlessness in front of goal. The result halted Inter's opportunity to break away and confirmed Milan in solitary second place, widening the gap for Champions League positions while strengthening Scudetto aspirations. The first half finished 1-1 after a defensive error and a penalty incident; Nkunku converted amid Leao's penalty attempt. Maignan produced four crucial saves, including a double stop on Da Cunha. Allegri trialed a 4-4-2 to close flanks, but the channels remained open.
