With a combination of selection problems and general fatigue, it just wasn’t Milan’s night at San Siro as they lost 3-1 to Juventus.
The Rossoneri saw their unbeaten run in Serie A ended at 27 games by the champions as Federico Chiesa’s brace and Weston McKennie’s goal off the bench saw Juve run out 3-1 winners at San Siro, rendering Davide Calabria’s fantastic equaliser a mere flash in the pan on a difficult night for a team decimated by suspension problems.
Below are the reactions of the players on social media…
Dispiaciuto perché il gol non è servito a portare a casa punti importanti, ma l'amarezza per questa sconfitta ci deve dare la carica per ripartire subito al massimo. Avanti @acmilan 📌📈🔴⚫ #MilanJuve #SempreMilan pic.twitter.com/utKO5062KF
