Mission accomplished, AC Milan win the Champions League Group Stage – Group F, Matchday 4 on Tuesday 7 November 2023 at the San Siro Stadium in Milan, Italy. A great victory for Milan, which chases away the crisis and is back in the game to advance to the Round of 16. After the 1-1 draw in the first half, Giroud decides the match with an imperious break following an assist from Theo Hernandez. Pioli’s men then legitimized the advantage with another couple of clear chances but, above all, practically never allowing the guests to get a shot. The only thrill comes in the 89th minute with Lee Kang-In’s post, then nothing happens again until the end of the infinite recovery granted by Gil Manzano.
The qualification is still open.
Paris Saint Germain opened the score in the 9th minute. The ex-Inter player, Milan Skriniar defeated AC Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan with a headed shot from very close range to the bottom left corner. The assist is by Marquinhos following a corner conceded by Yunus Musah.
