Milan Could Not Break Cagliari

A meeting of two clubs that have been historically successful in Serie A but are going through a difficult time this season ended in a draw.

At the Sardegna Arena, Cagliari and Milan drew 1-1 after a match that had a quick start, in which the locals took the lead thanks to a goal from Joao Pedro in the 12th minute, and Rafael Leao equalized for the Rossoneri in the 23rd minute.

With the result, both teams remained in the middle of the standings, but they are already far from the top positions occupied by Napoli, Milan, and Inter. The Rossoneri, who will face Tottenham on Tuesday in the Champions League, will have to quickly turn the page to get a good result in that match.

Cagliari is 14th in the table with 14 points, while Milan is 10th with 19 points.

The match started with a high pace, and the locals took the lead in the 12th minute when Joao Pedro took advantage of a rebound after a shot by Gaston Pereiro. Milan reacted quickly and equalized in the 23rd minute when Rafael Leao received a pass from Theo Hernandez and beat goalkeeper Alessio Cragno with a low shot.

The second half was more even, with both teams having chances to win the match. However, neither team was able to take advantage of their chances, and the match ended in a draw.

Milan will now turn their attention to their Champions League match against Tottenham on Tuesday. The Rossoneri will need to get a good result in that match if they want to qualify for the knockout stages.
