Allegri's team triumphed 3-1 with a reversal, at a time when the locals were the first to take the lead in the 10th minute. The baton was then taken by Mike Maignan, with the French goalkeeper keeping Milan in the game with at least three flagrant chances during the first half alone, a fantastic performance by the captain proving once again his vital importance, not in vain Igli Tare is doing everything to snatch his signature for the renewal of the contract. With Maignan doing his part, Milan returned to the game in the 45th minute where Rabiot won a penalty. From the penalty spot, Nkunku proved accurate by equalizing the figures at 1-1.

At the start of the second half, Maignan performed another miracle, where in the 50th minute he deflected a shot by Nico Paz. With Como encountering a real “wall”, as rarely happens, Milan proved to be perfect in the offensive phase where in the 55th minute, Leao provided an assist for Rabiot, with the Frenchman scoring the second goal for the “devil” with a precise shot inside the area. Como tried in every way to get back into the game, but they were unlucky. To mortgage this victory for Milan, Rabiot thought again, with the Frenchman launching a projectile from a distance, scoring the third goal for the Rossoneri and his second personal goal, thus completing his great evening.
