The struggle of AC Milan to defeat Salernitana in a 2-2 draw while Tomori is out injured is indicative of a disappointing season for the supporters.
After a few touches in the box, Leao’s low cross was pinballed at the defender, setting up Fikayo Tomori for an easy header to open the score. With a set piece, Salernitana equalized, and Simon Kjaer lost a player. At halftime, he would be substituted for Jan Carlo Simic.
With Tomori on the ground, Antonio Candreva scored a worldie to give them the lead, catching Mike Maignan off guard with a looping shot from outside the box. Simic is the sole available CB after Tomori left the game due to what appeared to be a muscular injury, compounding the injury problem.
Luka Jovic half-volleyed in from close range following an excellent layoff from Olivier Giroud, giving Milan the only equalizer they were able to steal in the ninetieth minute. The Rossoneri lost the game with yet another point deficit, pulling further away from second and toward fourth place.
Last night, AC Milan had to battle to even secure a draw against Salernitana after failing to secure all three points. As anticipated, the papers were not kind to the Rossoneri this morning, even though Luka Jovic scored the equalizer in the ninetieth minute.
Salernitana was at the bottom of the league going into the match, so Milan was the obvious favorite, but they were unable to capitalize on their position. You may read about the struggles of a few players in our player ratings. These individuals were fortunate to receive a draw.
