With a dry 3-1, Juve conquers San Siro, resizes the leader of the table Milan and reopens the games for the scudetto with arrogance. With this away victory, the Italian champions are back at -7 from Milan in the standings but they have one game less (the one with Napoli that needs to be recovered). Despite his first defeat, Pioli's Rossoneri maintain their lead due to the unexpected slip of Inter who lost badly in Genoa against Sampdoria (2-1),
As Mr. Capello commented at the end, he practically won the match Federico Chiesa, who was overflowing, humiliated Theo Hernandes and scored two goals, one better than the other, thanks also to an unsurpassed assist from Dybala on the first goal. Between the two goals by the national team winger, who had previously also hit the top corner, Milan had managed to equalize with a nice shot from outside the area by Calabria, after a foul - disputed by the black and whites but underestimated by the referee - by Calhanoglu on Rabiot.
Milan tried in every way to equalize for the second time but it was the difference that made the difference the quality of Pirlo's changes, which inserted first Mckennie and Kulusevski, and then Bernardeschi and Arthur. And in fact it was McKennie himself, on a pass from Kuluseski, who scored the third and decisive goal that put Milan on the ropes, bringing Juve back into the Scudetto match with full rights.
For Pirlo it is a victory that is worth double, both because it reopens the games in the top rankings and because the clash with Milan also has sentimental value for a champion like him, who as a footballer was a banner for the Rossoneri before finishing his Italian career in glory at Juve.
For Pioli, the consolation remains not only to remain at the top of the standings, but also to have given Milan a very effective game, which can allow them to play all their cards to win the Scudetto. But the challenge remains very open.
