MN: Different ways to win - Allegri responds to Fabregas with 688-pass display
"Massimiliano Allegri has taught us once again that there are many ways to win. Four days ago he did it with 200 passes and three shots, and then last night with with 700 passes and 25 shots. The important thing is to win - what counts are the three points. A dominant display Every match is different and has its own story, and there are many different ways to try to bring th result home."
"After a sluggish first half, in the second half - as often happens - Rafael Leao and his team-mates stepped up, creating a flood of clear chances until Niclas Fullkrug scored. From the 50th to the 54th minute, Milan created chances with Estupinan from a cross by Rabiot, with Gabbia's first header, from Ricci's shot, with Gabbia's second header, Pulisic's one-on-one with Falcone, Rabiot's shot from an assist by Estupinan, with the furious melee just before Fullkrug's goal."
"Milan have already had many different types of win, from scoring with their first shot on target to having to come from two goals behind. There were also the games that they didn't win, like against Genoa, with 33 shots and a draw at the end. In Como, the Diavolo had three shots, which resulted in three goals and three points."
AC Milan produced contrasting victories within four days under Massimiliano Allegri. One match featured roughly 200 passes and three shots, while another involved about 688 passes (rounded to 700) and 25 shots. Both matches yielded three points despite differing tactics and tempo. Against Lecce, a sluggish first half gave way to a dominant second-half spell in which Rafael Leao and teammates generated a flood of clear chances before Niclas Fullkrug scored. Milan have demonstrated the ability to win with few chances, to dominate possession heavily, and to recover from deficits, prioritizing results over style.
