Milan-Juventus 0-0

Those who were expecting a big match full of goals and emotions, a bit like what happened last October 27 with the 4-4 draw between Inter and Juventus, è were inevitably disappointed by the challenge played always at San Siro between the same Bianconeri and Milan: in the end the most awaited match of the thirteenth day of Serie A è ended 0-0 and did not give particular emotions in any phase of the 90' plus recovery.

Bringing pressure in the opening minutes è the team coached by Thiago Motta, which tried to make itself dangerous in the offensive phase with Conceiçao and Koopmeiners at 10': the Rossoneri defense controlled forò without problems. To see Milan’s real first offensive sortie, we even have to wait until 38': Thiaw’s header on the development of a through ball, ball out not by much. Individual errors are many, neither team takes the lead in operations: at halftime è 0-0.

The twenty-two players lined up at the start remain in place until minute 70, when Pulisic takes the place of Loftus-Cheek: just before that, a couple of interesting chances, one for Juve, with Thuram sending the ball into Maignan&#39s arms at 63's, and one for Milan two minutes later, with a free kick by Reijnders from an interesting position that doesn&#39t frame the goal mirror, however.

Weah and Fagioli are on for Conceiçao and McKennie at the 80's, on the other side Chukwueze, Calabria and Pavlovic take the place, at the 84's, of Musah, Emerson Royal and Gabbia. On the scoreboard, forò there are only the changes (they will add Mbangula and Danilo, who entered at 91'; for Yildiz and Savona) and yellow cards (Leao, Emerson Royal and Fofana for Milan, Gatti and Locatelli for Juve) and not even four minutes of recovery time, in which a header by Theo Hernandez well controlled by Di Gregorio right at 94' was noted, changed the fate of a match capable of stimulating more yawns than enthusiasm.
