Overview
- Como struck first through Marc-Oliver Kempf on 10 minutes before Christopher Nkunku equalised in first-half stoppage time after Kempf fouled Adrien Rabiot.
- Rabiot put Milan ahead with a close-range finish on 55 minutes and added a late second from distance after a Niclas Füllkrug headed layoff.
- Goalkeeper Mike Maignan produced multiple crucial stops, including a point-blank save from Lucas Da Cunha and a fingertip denial of Nico Paz, as Como also hit the woodwork.
- The result leaves Milan second on 43 points, three behind Inter and three ahead of Napoli, with Como sixth on 34.
- Massimiliano Allegri rotated systems during the match and later said Maignan “kept us alive,” while confirming Füllkrug was available off the bench despite a fractured toe.
