"After 17 minutes of Monday night's game at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino, AC Milan were staring down the barrel of back-to-back defeats, but they roared back. When Nikola Vlasic buried a penalty and Duvan Zapata ended his goal drought to put the home side 2-0 up, it looked like Milan's dreadful record in away league games against Torino was almost certain to continue."
"However, Adrien Rabiot's beautiful 29-metre strike not long after Zapata's goal inspired hope, and then it was the Christian Pulisic show. The USA international had shaken off flu to make the squad at the last minute, and he netted a clutch second-half brace off the bench to complete the comeback. It is only Milan's second win in 13 games away in the league against the Granata, and it sees Massimiliano Allegri's men return to the summit in Serie A after Inter and Napoli won."
AC Milan trailed 2-0 after 17 minutes at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino following a Nikola Vlasic penalty and a Duvan Zapata strike that ended his drought. Adrien Rabiot scored from about 29–30 metres to spark a comeback and contributed defensively and offensively. Christian Pulisic, who recovered from flu to make the squad, came off the bench to score a second-half brace and complete the turnaround. The victory is Milan's second away league win in 13 matches versus Torino and returns the team to the top of Serie A. The team continues to suffer slow starts, creating early vulnerabilities despite strong performances after the 30-minute mark.
