AC Milan Edge Fiorentina in a Tactical Showdown at San Siro

AC Milan

AC Milan returned to winning ways after edging Fiorentina 2–1 in a tactical thriller at the San Siro, as covered in our Serie A live blog. Stefano Pioli’s men looked sharper in attack, with Rafael Leão leading the charge down the left flank and Olivier Giroud making his mark once again.

Milan opened the scoring early when Leão sliced through the Fiorentina defense to set up Christian Pulisic for a clean finish. The visitors, however, showed resilience. In the second half, Nico González equalized from the penalty spot after VAR confirmed a handball by Fikayo Tomori.

As the game seemed destined for a draw, substitute Luka Jović—ironically a former Fiorentina striker—scored a late winner, sealing all three points for the Rossoneri.

The win keeps Milan firmly in the top-four hunt, while Fiorentina’s mixed form continues to frustrate manager Vincenzo Italiano. Fans left the San Siro buzzing as Milan reaffirmed their ambitions in this season’s Serie A campaign.
