"AC Milan dropped more points against a newly promoted side as they had to come from behind to earn a late draw against Pisa. Rafael Leao got Milan off to a great start with a goal after just a few minutes, and it would remain that way until the second half. Pisa then turned the game on its head, equalising through a Juan Cuadrado penalty and then taking a late lead when M'Bala Nzola netted."
"Massimiliano Allegri made two changes to the starting line-up compared to the team that beat Fiorentina. Koni De Winter took the place of Fikayo Tomori who was given a rest, while Santiago Gimenez came in for Zachary Athekame. Rohit Rajeev has the tactical analysis. Build-up Milan set up with an interesting tactical tweak: allowing two centre-backs to push forward during build-up while Modric/Ricci sat deep as the deep-lying playmaker to guard against counters."
AC Milan took an early lead through Rafael Leao but conceded in the second half as Pisa equalised with a Juan Cuadrado penalty and later took the lead via M'Bala Nzola. Zachary Athekame rescued a late point with a long shot that struck the post and went in, leaving Milan to drop points and lose top spot after Napoli and Roma won. Massimiliano Allegri made two changes to the starting lineup, bringing in Koni De Winter and Santiago Gimenez. Milan employed a tactical build-up tweak with advancing centre-backs and a deep-lying playmaker, and used diagonal 'Escadinha' links and positional rotations to create chances.
