The AC Milan home match against Spezia was supposed to be without much suspense, after all, the gap between the two sides was very large, Spezia had only won 5 games before this, and had not won at the San Siro Stadium before. And AC Milan has been in hot form lately. The result was surprising, AC Milan actually broke the big cold, lost 1-2 to Spezia, and was reversed by the kill, which was too disappointing.

And AC Milan had too many opportunities to take advantage of, among them, Te O conceded a penalty, Messias's pocket shot was whistled by the referee in advance, and Ibrahimovic's header was blocked by the crossbar.

It's a very humiliating game for AC Milan this season.
Spezia striker Giuëi, one of the team's best performers, said in an interview after the game that it was like a dream to be able to play such a game at the San Siro Stadium. Spezia is also a fantastic team, having faced the top 2 teams in the league on 6 occasions after their first promotion to Serie A in 2020/21, with 3 successful upset wins, 2 of which were upset wins over AC Milan. This team is really AC Milan's nemesis.

Leo performed well, all 6 attempts were successful, 1 goal on 4 shots, and 4 key passes, and he performed very well on the offensive end, almost assisting. Theo Hernandez was undoubtedly a key player in Milan's defeat, conceding a penalty. The extremely offensive defender easily wasted penalty opportunities. It has to be said that Spezia coach Motta is really powerful, his ability to adjust on the spot is perfect, and the two players who have been replaced have played a key role, Kevin Agudero scored and Kovalenko sent assists. At this point, Motta finished pioli.
