"It's unlucky, seeing as he was just handing off his man when the shot was fired, but he still needed to do better in keeping his arm in. On top of that, I thought he could have won a few more duels, especially in the first half. He managed to find the right positions throughout the game and as a result, he had quite a few clearances and crucial interventions. Questions will be asked whether he was fouled on Pisa's second goal."
"He was a little bit too quiet in the first half for my liking, but improved in the second half with a great shot from long distance and a nice pass for Leao. That said, the big moment was in the dying seconds when he squandered a great chance to give Milan all three points. He needed to score there."
"He couldn't do much about the first goal, as it came from the spot, but the feeling is that he was caught a bit off guard on the second one. Just like his teammates, in other words, but it wasn't a brilliant finish that could have been saved. Also some poor moments with his feet."
AC Milan were heavy favourites but failed to take all three points against Pisa, with several players showing a lack of composure. Maignan conceded from the spot and appeared slightly off guard for the second goal, also showing poor moments with his feet. De Winter was unlucky on one incident but needed to keep his arm in and win more duels. Gabbia found good defensive positions, making clearances and interventions amid questions about a possible foul on the second Pisa goal. Pavlovic made forward runs but struggled to recover on the second goal. Saelemaekers improved after a quiet start, produced a long-range shot and a key pass yet missed a decisive late chance. Fofana tracked back effectively and created attacking moments, including a nutmeg flick that should have led to an assist.
