A super duel at the San Siro Stadium won by Juventus remaining the sole leader of the Serie A.  The nigh of the big ex!  Ex-AC Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri now coaching Juventus  defeating his ex team.  The great Argentinian forward Gonzalo Higuain facing his ex team Juventus with a poor performance after failing a penalty and getting a red card.

A cold shower for AC Milan. It is Juventus to open the score in the 8th minute. Forward Mario Mandzukic defeating Milan goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma with a headed shot in the bottom right corner. The assist is by Alex Sandro with a cross. A fast goal and pressure is now for the Rossoneri to react.

In the 38th minute, Referee Paolo Silvio Mazzoleni giving a penalty to AC Milan after consulting the VAR. Penalty is conceded by Mehidi Benatia after a hand ball inside the penalty area. Milan players protesting until Referee confirmed the penalty. Oh well, just when most expected to see a draw… PUFF! The ex-Juventus forward Gonzalo Higuain failing to convert his right footed shot penalty because goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny saved in the bottom left corner!!! What a blow!

Juventus securing the victory in the 81st minute with the goal by Cristiano Ronaldo.  A total chaos for Milan conceding this late goal.  Cristiano defeating Donnarumma with a right footed shot.

What else can go wrong for Milan? Hum! Well, my friends, in the 83rd minute, Referee Mazzoleni gives a yellow, and then immediately a red card to Gonzalo Higuain vividly protesting. Higuain almost in tears while his teammates try to calm him down.
