Match Events
- 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for SSC Napoli to score. At the same time, AC Milan does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
- 5' SSC Napoli is showing some good football. However, SSC Napoli are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 10' Kevin De Bruyne needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 16 Yellow cards this season.
- 12' That looks like a foul for a card for Alessandro Buongiorno.
- 17' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering SSC Napoli that had 495 games and scored 555 goals.
- 22' Supporters expect more eagerness from Luka Modric, as he is very good at scoring at Diego Armando Maradona with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 27' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 32' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 32 minutes.
- 37' AC Milan seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 42' Mike Maignan has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 43 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 47' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 52' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 57' It looks surprising AC Milan does not make any changes. Christian Pulisic has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 62' Zachary Athekame is replacing Alexis Saelemaekers for the AC Milan side.
- 63' Another change for AC Milan made on 63 minute. Niclas Fullkrug leaves to be changed by Santiago Gimenez.
- 68' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 70' Alisson Santos is replacing Giovane Nascimento for the SSC Napoli side.
- 74' Another substitution for AC Milan to replace Christopher Nkunku by Christian Pulisic on 74 minute.
- 79' GOAL! Matteo Politano scores on 79.
- 81' Matteo Politano is having his name booked by the referee on 81.
- 82' Time for substitution for AC Milan. Fikayo Tomori is replaced by Ruben Loftus-Cheek.
- 85' The supporters are chanting for Eljif Elmas. He replaces Kevin De Bruyne on 85 minute.
- 90' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Strahinja Pavlovic suffering a number of foals already.
- The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for AC Milan.
