Atlético de Madrid went back on time to AC Milan and surprised in the Champions League

AC Milan lost 2-1 to Atlético de Madrid for the second round of the Champions League group stage at the Giuseppe Meazza stadium. The locals went ahead on the scoreboard at 20 ′ thanks to Rafael Leao’s goal, however, 9 minutes later, Kessié would be sent off.

In the second half, shortly after the end, Antoine Griezmann would put the tie at 84 ′, and at 97 ′, Luis Suárez would mark the victory from the penalty spot.

After drawing at home on the first date against Porto, Atlético de Madrid is obliged to recover points in the match corresponding to Group B, otherwise their qualification to the round of 16 could be complicated in a very even area.

Those led by Argentine Diego Simeone will seek to improve in the game and be the solid team from previous competitions so as not to be in the quarterfinals and eighth-finals, as in the two previous editions of the Champions League. The ‘Colchoneros’ are the current LaLiga champions.

For its part, AC Milan was able to return to the Champions League after several years and this season the team led by Stefano Piolo has competitive players who make it dream of being the team that reached the final stages again. In their first group match, they lost 3-2 on the road to Liverpool.
