Serie A, Venezia-Milan: la cronaca della partita
At 3′ Venezia insidious from corner: header by Candé, ball deflected and blocked by Maignan. At 5′ GOL OF MILAN: PULISIC! Served perfectly by Fofana, the former Chelsea man in front of Radu does not miss by kicking with his left foot. The goal gave confidence to the Rossoneri, who go in search of 2-0 to put themselves in a calmer situation they can handle. But the hosts did not stand idly by and tried to make themselves dangerous to create the preconditions for an equalizer.
On 22′ big chance for Venezia: Yeboah skips past Pavlovic and serves Zerbin, who left-footed from inside the area and narrowly misses the goal. A minute later Zerbin’s insidious cross, no teammate gets to it and the ball is deflected into the corner. On the corner, another great chance for the Venetians: Yeboah’s right-footed shot fails to frame the goal from an interesting position. Excellent moment for Di Francesco’s team.
At 27′ Theo Hernandez tries a roundabout conclusion from distance, ball out. At 32′ Nicolussi Caviglia’s dangerous free kick, ball just out to Maignan’s right. At 33′ VENICE GOL CANCELLED. Yeboah, left alone by Pavlovic and Theo, had kicked powerfully from inside the area on Haps’ cross, but there had been an offside by Busio earlier. VAR intervention decisive.
At 43′ GOL CANCELLED TO MILAN: Pulisic on the ball swept in by Gabbia (decisive on a slide) was offside before going over Radu with an underhand shot. In the second of two minutes of stoppage time Nicolussi Caviglia’s insidious free kick, Maignan somehow clears. Then referee Manganiello whistles the end of the first half: Venezia-Milan 0-1.
At the beginning of the second half the Veneti tried again to throw themselves forward in search of an equalizer. At 54′ the Rossoneri claimed a penalty kick for Candè’s hands on Pavlovic’s shot. At 56′ Candè becomes the first caution of the match. A minute later it is Venezia that claims a penalty kick for Pavlovic’s push on Yeboah. At 62′ chance for Milan, Abraham from a good position kicks very high and wastes.
At 64′ Di Francesco put on Marcandalli, Kike Perez and Gytkjaer, while Conceicao inserted Gimenez for Abraham. At 67′ Candé leaves due to injury, Oristanio enters. Two minutes later it is Jimenez who is down with an injury, then gets up but is still replaced. In comes Walker and Loftus-Cheek for Jimenez and Leao at 70′. Immediately cross by Loftus-Cheek, header by Gimenez, ball out. In 75′ wasted chance by former Chelsea, who kicks badly inside the area. In the 80′ inside Zampano for Haps.
In the 83rd minute Gimenez fails to kick from inside the area after a good assist from Theo, too slow and cumbersome, a defender neutralizes it. In the 87th minute Conceicao inserts Terracciano and Felix for Fofana and Pulisic. Venice is very dangerous with a shot by Zerbin from outside the box in the 89th minute: ball just out. Veneti on the assault in the final minutes of the match and Milan not taking advantage of counterattacks.
In the sixth minute of added time SANTIAGO GIMENEZ’S GOL! Reijnders’ free kick that launches Santi, who inside the area passes over Radu with a precise lob. Venezia-Milan ends with the result 0-2.
