On May 12, Beijing time, the 36th round of Serie A ended two fierce battles, and the second-ranked Milan beat the relegation team Cagliari to rank second; Eighth-placed Napoli lost fourth-placed Bologna in the race for seventh. Let's take a look at a brief roundup of the competition and the latest Serie A standings.
Milan-Cagliari
Milan, who had no desire, sat at home to welcome the relegation team Cagliari, originally thought that Milan would send a wave of benefits, but Milan, which was not the main force, was full of firepower at the beginning, until the 35th minute Pulisic on the left side of the penalty area and Chukwueze kicked the wall to cooperate with the bottom cross to hit the defender to change direction, Chukwueze quickly followed up and shot was blocked by the goalkeeper, captain Bennacer met the ball and pushed the ball into the net to break the deadlock. Subsequently, the two sides attacked and defended each other, but it was difficult to find a good opportunity. Milan led Cagliari 1-0 at half-time.
Entering the second half, Milan took the lead when substitute Rafael Leao hit the crossbar with a shot in front of the goal. Not to be outdone, Cagliari slashed straight to the corner from the edge of the field and was saved by Sportiello. In the 59th minute, Leao started to dribble the ball at the back, and suddenly went straight to the goalkeeper, Pulisic stepped forward to receive the ball and burst into the penalty area to face the goalkeeper and volleyed into the goal. It didn't take long for Nandes to pull one back with a cushioned shot in front of goal. After that, Milan's firepower was suppressed, and in the 74th minute, Reinders blasted a falling ball from outside the penalty area and went straight to the corner to score.
With no way out, Cagliari opted to give it a go, but Shomurodov's volley hit the crossbar. As the game progressed, Cagliari's formation was too forward and gave Milan a good chance to counter-attack, and in the 83rd minute, Leao burst into the box and slipped past the goalkeeper to score an empty goal. Two minutes later, Christian Pulisic's volley from the penalty area was saved by Mina, but the referee had crossed the line. At full-time, Milan beat Cagliari 5-1 to end a four-game winless run in the league. When the team led by his mentor Ranieri was in dire straits of relegation, Pioli, as an apprentice, did not take into account the love of his master and apprentice at all, which was really unexpected!
Naples - Bologna
Bologna started the game with an early two-goal advantage, with Ndoye opening the scoring with a header in the ninth minute and Bosch heading home two minutes later. Napoli, who were behind, were a little stunned, and in the 21st minute, Osimhen made a penalty, and the sharp-footed Politano actually missed. Then the emotional Juan Jr. clashed with the Bologna players one after another, which shows that the pressure on the players is not small. Unfortunately, in the rest of the game, Napoli had an absolute advantage but always struggled to find a good opportunity, and finally Napoli defeated Bologna 0-2 and suffered a five-round winless run, Napoli's two core Osimhen and K77 performed sluggishly, with a total of 3 shots on goal and 35 lost possession.
