The first half of the hit of the 28th round could disappoint the fans. There were no favorable situations in the goal. There were more fouls, yellow cards than beautiful offensive actions. The representative of Poland – Piotr Zieliński, who played in the starting eleven, also did not stand out in this part of the game.
Giroud’s first goal outside of Milan
After just 240 seconds in the second half, he took the lead. Davide Calabria shot from 18 meters. Oliver Giroud added a foot in the penalty area and scored.
– Man of big matches. Giroud can score goals in such games. Amazing story. Two goals against Inter, and now scoring his seventh consecutive starter in a hugely important match against Napoli. He is a specialist in beautiful goals, but also in those where you need to know where to be on the pitch – enthusiastic commentators on Eleven Sports.
It was Giroud’s eighth Serie A goal this season, but only the first to be scored outside of Milan. The French is also the third player in the Italian league to score a goal against Inter and Napoli. Ruslan Malinowski and Gianluca Scamacca also did it.
The hosts could not bring the opportunity to equalize for a long time. Napoli players were helpless on the offensive. No wonder the fans whistled at their actions on the pitch. It must also be said that AC Milan defended itself wisely.
In stoppage time he could have increased his score, but Alexis Saelemaekers squandered a great opportunity after a counterattack. At that time, Piotr Zieliński, who left the field in the 82nd minute, was no longer on the pitch. Andre Zambo Anguissa replaced him.
AC Milan have won two Serie A games against Napoli for the first time in 41 years.
After this victory, AC Milan is again the leader of the competition. He has two points advantage over Inter Milan, but also played one more game. he is in third place, three points behind the leader.
Next matchday, AC Milan will host Empoli, Inter will face Torino away and Napoli will travel to Verona.
