AC Milan Cruise to 3-0 Victory Over Lecce, Join Torino at Serie A Summit

Posted : 28 September 2024

AC Milan secured a dominant 3-0 win over Lecce on Friday, moving them to the top of Serie A alongside Torino. The victory followed their impressive derby triumph over Inter Milan last weekend. Quick first-half goals from Alvaro Morata, Theo Hernandez, and Christian Pulisic ensured Milan's third consecutive league win, bringing them to 11 points, level with Torino. Milan's superior goal difference could have placed them solely at the top, but they have played one more game than their rivals.

 

Milan could have added to their tally, as Tammy Abraham and Ruben Loftus-Cheek both hit the woodwork before and after halftime. The team's attacking prowess was on full display, with Pulisic scoring his fourth goal in as many games and Hernandez showcasing his best form, providing the assist for Morata's opener and netting a brilliant second goal. However, the night wasn't without a blemish, as teenage defender Davide Bartesaghi was sent off for a reckless challenge just five minutes after replacing Hernandez.

 

With this strong run of form, Milan now shifts focus to the Champions League, where they will face Bayer Leverkusen on Tuesday. After suffering a tough defeat against Liverpool in their opening group match, Milan will aim to continue their positive momentum in Europe. Paulo Fonseca's side looks to build on their recent performances, with key attacking players like Pulisic and Hernandez in top form.

 

For Lecce, the defeat caps a miserable week, as they sit just above the relegation zone. Last weekend, they squandered a two-goal lead against Parma and were knocked out of the Italian Cup by second-tier Sassuolo. With mounting pressure, Lecce will need to regroup to avoid further sliding down the table.
