PRIMAVERA DEFEATED BY ROMA AT HOME
Youth Teams
A bitter evening for Coach Guidi's Primavera team. At the PUMA House of Football, Roma - aided by a brace from Misitano and, in between, Graziani's goal - won 3-0 on matchday 13 of the championship. It was a result that left little room for remorse, a punishing scoreline that should not, however, affect the Rossoneri. The start of the match was encouraging, but then the Giallorossi found the lead and doubled it in the space of four minutes. It stunned the Diavolo, who nevertheless tried to open the game up again in the second half, before the third goal moments after AC Milan's best chance to reduce the deficit.
Liberali's expulsion further compromised the final minutes. The Rossoneri met a determined Roma, who thanks to today's three points overtook Guidi's team in the standings. An honourable mention to Alessandro Longoni, who neutralised Graziani's penalty before being beaten on the rebound by the same Roma player. The focus now shifts to the next fixture: on Saturday 7 December, the team will travel to Genoa to face Sampdoria.

MATCH REPORT
A lively match right from the start. AC Milan created the first chance with Scotti's shot that went wide in the 7th minute. Roma responded with attempts by Marazzotti and Coletta between the 13th and 15th minutes that didn't challenge Longoni enough. The Giallorossi persevered, however, and in the 27th minute Marazzotti - who had also come close to scoring four minutes earlier - caught Mirra with a poor cross and Misitano converted the first goal from close range. The disadvantage did not shake the Rossoneri, yet after 30 minutes Duțu gave away a penalty for a foul in the box on Misitano. Longoni neutralised Graziani's spot kick, but could do nothing on the rebound from the number 10. 0-2. AC Milan reacted and pressed ahead, but did not challenge De Marzi properly. Half-time.
The Rossoneri restarted with four substitutions. In the first quarter of the second half, the rhythm became more fragmented and the number of breaks in play increased, which meant the Rossoneri struggled to put the Giallorossi rearguard under pressure. From a possible 1-2 to 0-3, the twist of fate came between the 61st and 62nd minutes: Liberali took advantage of a defensive error and headed towards goal, but De Marzi was decisive on his save. Roma went on the counter-attack with Misitano, who beat Longoni at the near post for the third. AC Milan tried to close the gap. In the 74th minute Bonomi went into the centre of the box and fired a powerful attempt, but De Marzi responded again, and in the 78th minute Bakoune shot from the centre of the box, but the visitors' defence cleared it away on the goal line. The final assaults proved unsuccessful, and in the final minutes Liberali was sent off. Full-time.
