With continuous goals in two minutes, Milan reversed Genoa away, recovered 19 points as a laggard this season, becoming the Serie A reversal king.

Two goals in two minutes, Milan became the strongest reversal king in Serie A.

The Italian Cup final has not started yet, and Milan completed the backstab against Bologna on another list. Before playing Genoa, Bologna had just tied Juventus in this round and grabbed 18 points in the league behind. After a day, Milan staged a three-point reversal on Genoa, regaining the power of 19 points against the headwind ball, which immediately dwarfed Bologna.

Reversal of addiction is considered an achievement? Looking in the better direction, it means that the team is resilient, the adjustments in the near future are reasonable and effective, and the team's desire to win and mental power are extraordinary; on the worse, it is always in a backward state and can always reverse, which means that the team is not focused when facing some opponents with equal or even worse strength, so they often get the first shot by their opponents.

Genoa's last victory over Milan was in March 2020. Pandev, then 36, and Ibrahimovic, 38, became the protagonists of the game, and Genoa finally won 2-1.

For example, this round of Genoa. Among the little brothers in Serie A, Genoa is a rival that Milan likes very much. The personal relationship established by Galliani during the time of power and Preziosi has allowed the two sides to maintain a good cooperative relationship after the vultures took the helm, and Mesias is a typical case. In-court dialogue, Genoa only won one of Milan in the last 14 matches, and it was in March 2020 when Pioli was coaching. In other words, Genoa has not beat Milan for a full five years.

It is not easy to beat such an opponent, but at least you should be able to control the situation. The reality is that there is no quick response from Menion to the extreme rescue, and Milan cannot support Vitina's substitute in the second half to break the deadlock. Vieira's fierce pressing tactics are extremely restrictive to Milan. Fofana was injured and retreated in advance in less than half an hour, and the scenes of players falling to the ground frequently occurred. The referee presented 6 yellow cards throughout the game. Considering that both sides have old relationships and no pressure to achieve results, this fierce fighting is no longer merciless, which also confirms that Vieira's wish to "we want to defeat a Serie A giant."

Plisic is one of only three Serie A players in all competitions over the past two seasons to have at least 50 goals (31 goals and 19 assists), while the other two are Ademora Lukeman (50) and Lautaro Martinez (54). In this game, Pulisic almost refreshed his goals.

Genoa almost did it. Until Leo equalized in the 76th minute, Milan actually couldn't see much to save the momentum of the game. The closest chance to score was in the 41st minute of the first half. Milan penetrated the opponent's defense through continuous cooperation in front of the penalty area. Unfortunately, Pulisic's shot was resolved by Leali who decisively attacked.

After that, Milan showed signs of fatigue throughout the second half. Reindez's goal route is too obvious. He was cut off by his opponent several times before serving his teammates. Milan, who lacks the impact on the right, can only rely on Leo to play singles on the left, but the Portuguese winger, who has obviously gradually been touched by the opponent's intention to break through, also lacks sharpness in the limited space of the positional battle. At the last moment of the game, Leo, who formed a single-on-one offensive situation on the left wing, simply gave up the idea of ​​attacking the opponent and chose to pass the return control. Milan, who had the lead, lacked some fighting spirit to completely defeat the opponent. Jimenez, who came on as a substitute, scored again. His assists helped the team equalize the score in this game, and the Mexicans are gradually finding their form in the game.

The reversal of the king's yellow robe depends on the depth of the bench. Santiago and Felix have been criticized for their unstable state, but their opponents like Genoa still show their sharp blades. The first goal, Santiago's cross route was exquisite, penetrated the entire defense line of Genoa's return to chase and fall, giving Leo time to adjust the shot; the second goal was to encircle Felix in front of the goal, although he did not touch the ball, he participated in the forward dispatching organization of the ball during both attacks, showing a hint of the midfield commander's style. If he hadn't been too sticky with the ball and the pace was too slow, Felixburn had the chance to break the Serie A away game in Genoa. Unfortunately, his handling after two successful breakthroughs was too independent, which made people realize that there was still a gap between him and the top players. His prospects for staying in Milan after the season have also become increasingly bleak.

It is always a good thing to win, especially in the real final battle of the Milan season - the Italian Cup final will start nine days later. Only by using victory to strengthen confidence and maintain the rhythm can Concesan be the most fully prepared before the war. The Santiagos' shining points out the biggest advantage of Milan's battle with Bologna - in terms of bench depth, Milan's configuration is better than that of the opponent and can prepare more back-ups. If he can win Bologna in two back-to-back games in the next week, Milan will at least have a relatively decent result in the season.
