CM: Milan’s two-fold Leao problem exposed during loss against Torino

A familiar problem was exposed for AC Milan during their defeat against Torino at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino regarding the balance of the attacking department.

It was a damaging night for the Rossoneri who put in a sub-par performance against Ivan Juric’s side as their away league unbeaten run was ended at 17 games and they also fell to six points behind Napoli in the table.

Calciomercato.com recall how Rafael Leao’s performance is worth putting under the magnifying glass as he missed two huge scoring chances that happened in the first few minutes of the match.

The Portuguese winger has plenty on his mind given the big Champions League game coming on Wednesday and the World Cup next month, but to take that step to being a world-class player he must become more clinical.

The former Lille man was not the only player responsible for the defeat in Turin though, as Milan made many individual mistakes and ultimately have shown again that they are too dependent on the Portuguese at an attacking level.
