Cagliari 0-1 AC Milan: The Art of Winning Without Dominating
AC Milan started 2026 the way pragmatic teams do: not flashy, but with control. A sluggish first half turned into a measured second, and one decisive action from Rafael Leão separated the sides.

AC Milan 0–2 Napoli: The Warning Signs Milan Can’t Ignore Anymore
This wasn’t a bad night. It was a familiar pattern returning the moment Milan lost its stabilizers. Against Napoli, Milan didn’t just lose 0–2. Milan lost control of the game’s rhythm, the ability to reset under pressure, and the structural calm that prevents chaos from becoming dangerous. Those problems didn’t start with Napoli’s goals. They started earlier, quietly, in the same zones where Milan has struggled all season whenever certain profiles are missing. This match wasn’t about Napoli being brilliant. It was about Milan revealing how fragile its system still is when key roles are absent.
