It was such an unfortunate day for Milan today. Because their performance was actually promising in the first half. Things could have been better for them if they were able to finish the half without that red card. It really ruined their plans I'm afraid. The second half was fully under control of Juventus after that.
Locatelli's winner brought Juventus really important three points. Honestly I didn't expect Juventus to finish Milan's winning streak in San Siro. Probably they couldn't have done it if it weren't for the red card. This week has been in favour of Juventus to get right behind Milan by one point at the same time.
When I first watched that game, I thought Milan had the upper hand. The way they played was smooth and looked good. Yes, but sport is unpredictable. That red card changed everything. Knowing what they were doing, Juventus took advantage of the situation and changed the tables
The fact that Locatelli won, even though it wasn't a complete surprise given his recent form, made things even worse for Milan. Unfortunately, I'm split. The second half was when Juventus really showed their class, but I keep thinking about the "what if" situation. You know, what if Milan hadn't gotten that red card? The game probably would have been played very differently. At the end of the day, these turns are what make football the exciting sport that everyone loves
It cannot be denied that the superiority of players has a significant influence on the team's play, and it was clear that even in the second half after Juventus took a 1 lead, their players dominated the game and were able to set the tempo of the game as they wanted, so they were able to score the winning goal in the 63rd minute.
That's how football is, there are many things we can't predict from the start, but apart from all that, I think this victory will have a big enough impact on the Juventus team to be able to compete at the top of the standings this season, this will be a higher motivation and self-confidence. for the Juventus team after being able to win at AC MIlan.
And of course if there was no red card, then the course of the match in the second half would be quite different.
