"The feeling of revenge was in the air for Milan, who lost two of their three games against Bologna last season, including the Coppa Italia final. In the end the performance reflected that of a fired-up team keen to respond to Inter, Napoli and Juventus' wins over the weekend."
"Ruben Loftus-Cheek netted from Adrien Rabiot's assist to make it 1-0, Christopher Nkunku won and converted a penalty to make it 2-0, then Rabiot got himself on the scoresheet early in the second half to complete a 3-0 rout."
"Milan could have had more goals in truth but for some late missed chances by Nkunku and Niclas Füllkrug. However, it was a good night of work in Emilia, and the gap to Inter remains five points, while Roma in fifth are now seven points away."
Milan delivered a convincing 3-0 victory over Bologna, overturning recent setbacks against that opponent and avenging a prior Coppa Italia final loss. Ruben Loftus-Cheek opened the scoring from an Adrien Rabiot assist, Christopher Nkunku won and converted a penalty to extend the lead, and Rabiot added a third early in the second half. Milan created further chances late on but missed opportunities from Nkunku and Niclas Füllkrug. The team appeared fired-up and motivated by rival results earlier in the weekend. The win leaves Milan five points behind Inter, with Roma seven points further back in fifth.
