👉 Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:

Cagliari, 15th position with 33 points and a negative goal difference of -23

AC Milan won the Serie A Week 36 game crushing Cagliari on Saturday 11 May 2024 at the San Siro Stadium in Milan, Italy. It is a great victory for Milan with 5 goals. This is a delicate moment for Milan despite the arithmetic placement in the Champions League having already arrived a few weeks ago. Even today the fans did not support the team as a sign of protest asking for investments for the near future. One of the banners displayed read: “We demand and deserve a strong and winning club. Milano does not settle”.The Rossoneri are coming off a spectacular draw here at San Siro against Genoa 3-3, and have not won at home since the 3-0 defeat against Lecce last 6 April.

Anything but a trivial match for Cagliari, failed to find oxygen in order to save themselves. In fact, the rossoblù are floating in 15th place with 33 points, only 3 more than Udinese who are currently the team to take as a reference for the relegation zone. In a week’s time the rossoblù will have the very important match at the Mapei against Sassuolo.

AC Milan took the lead in the 36th minute. Ismaël Bennacer defeated Cagliari goalkeeper
Simone Scuffet with a left-footed shot to the center.

AC Milan with another goal in the 59th minute. Christian Pulisic scored with a left-footed shot to the bottom left corner. The assist is by Rafael Leão.

Cagliari scored an honor goal in the 63rd minute. Nahitan Nández defeated AC Milan goalkeeper Marco Sportiello with a right footed shot to the bottom left corner. The assist is by Gabriele Zappa.

Milan with a 3-1 in the 74th minute. Tijjani Reijnders scored with a right footed shot to the bottom left corner. The assist is by Théo Hernández following a corner conceded by Yerry Mina.

A poker for AC Milan in the 83rd minute. Rafael Leão scored from very close range with a right footed shot to the bottom left corner. The assist is by Ismaël Bennacer.

AC Milan sealed the victory in the 87th minute. Captain America Christian Pulisic scored with a right footed shot to the bottom left corner. The assist is by Noah Okafor.

Stats before the game: Milan is the team that has beaten Cagliari the most times in Serie A: for the Rossoneri against the Rossoblù 46 wins, 27 draws and eight defeats – in particular the Lombards have won seven of the last eight matches against the Sardinians, conceding only two goals in the partial.  Milan’s last home defeat against Cagliari in Serie A dates back to June 1997 (0-1, goal by Muzzi); since then, since the 1998/99 season, the Rossoneri have had 17 wins and two draws against the Sardinians for a points average of 2.79, the highest in the competition for a team against a single opponent faced at least 15 times in the period. Milan have not won for four games in Serie A (D3, L1) and have not fared worse in the competition since February 2023 when they went five games in a row without success (D2, L3) – the last Rossoneri coach to reach the championship twice five races without success was Filippo Inzaghi (three between 2014 and 2015). Milan have conceded five goals in their last two Serie A home games (three against Genoa, two against Inter), as many goals as in the previous 10; the Rossoneri have not conceded at least two goals for three home games in a row since January 2021 in the competition.
