Milan finished the season in the best way possible, beating Cagliari comfortably at the San Siro with a 3-0 scoreline.
Although they didn’t reach fifth place, Stefano Pioli and his men deserve a lot of praise. The Rossoneri took the lead early on through an own-goal, after Rafael Leao managed to beat his opponent on the left flank.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic missed a penalty just before half-time but got his revenge in the second half, sending a rocket past the goalkeeper to double Milan’s lead. Samu Castillejo then killed the game with the third goal, assisted by Jack Bonaventura.
