🏆👉  AC Milan ended the Champions League Group Stage – Group F, Matchday 2 with a goalless draw on Wednesday 4 October 2023 at the Signal Iduna Park (Westfalenstadion) in Dortmund, Germany.  AC Milan rose to two points in the standings, placing third in Group F, behind Newcastle, first with 4, and PSG, stuck on 3 after the defeat at St. James’ Park. Still no goals scored or conceded in this edition of the Champions League for Pioli’s team. Borussia Dortmund, bottom of the table on 1, wins the first point in their group but has to postpone the goal and victory.

We might say it was a balanced match. Dortmund came closest to taking the lead in the first half, trying repeatedly with Malen, Fullkkrug and Bensebaini, but without being able to find the precision needed to beat Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan.

At the end of the first half, Milan showed off with a couple of accelerations from Rafael Leao, who was also the protagonist at the start of the second half with the assist for Christian Pulisic, whose conclusion was blocked by Kobel. In the 82nd minute, Theo Hernandez also tries with a header, but the Rossoneri’s biggest chance of the match comes four minutes later, when Chuckwueze, alone in front of Kobel, fails to get past him and Reijnders misses the target by centimeters on the rebound.

Borussia Dortmund and Milan returned to face each other for the first time since the second group stage of the 2002/03 Champions League: the away team won both matches 1-0 – the Rossoneri then lifted the trophy that season.
