Coppa Italia
AC Milan continue their journey in the Coppa Italia with a convincing 3-1 victory over Roma in the quarter-finals. The Rossoneri displayed great determination and quality, with Tammy Abraham as the standout performer, scoring a brace. The first goal came in the 16th minute, followed by another in the 42nd, both assisted by Hernández. Roma reduced the deficit in the 54th minute with a goal from Dovbyk, but AC Milan sealed the win in the 72nd minute with João Félix, who made an immediate impact off the bench. With this victory, the Diavolo secure their spot in the semi-final in April and will face the winner of Inter v Lazio.

After dominating the first half, the team responded well to Roma's goal, maintaining control and finding the third goal with a well-executed play. The substitutions proved effective, with João Félix and Giménez injecting new energy into the attack. The defence held firm, with Maignan alert in goal. This positive result is a great sign for the rest of the season, and fans can look forward to upcoming challenges with optimism. Forza Milan!
