The ‘rossoneri’ beat 1-0 at San Siro and add 28 points, three more than Napoli that plays on Thursday.
The fourth goal of the year by Frenchman Olivier Giroud gave Milan a valuable 1-0 win at San Siro on Tuesday against Torino and allowed him to reach the solo lead of the Italian Serie A, waiting for what Naples does next Thursday against Bologna.
With nine wins and a draw in ten games, Milan is now the leader with 28 points, three more than Napoli and ten more than Inter Milan, third, who visit Empoli this Wednesday.
The milanista outfit, which recovered this Tuesday the Frenchman Theo Hernández, negative for coronavirus like the Spanish Brahim Díaz, who, however, was not called up, scored Giroud’s fourth goal of the year.
The French striker, European champion with Chelsea, he scored at pleasure after a corner kick in the 14th minute and unbalanced a game in which Torino had more possession, although without creating great danger in front of the goal defended by the Romanian Ciprian Tatarusanu.
The best chance was fifteen minutes from the end of the Croatian Josip Brekalo, who finished with little power after facing Tatarusanu.
Milan, in which the Swede Zlatan Ibrahimovic played the last three minutes, managed to defend themselves with order until the end and, after five minutes of added time, was able to celebrate a triumph that throws him in command of the table alone.
For Stefano Pioli’s team a cycle of high demand will now open, with the league visit to Roma by Portuguese José Mourinho, the Champions League match against Porto and the Milanese derby against Inter Milan. (D).
