Rabiot’s Late Magic and The 빠른티비 Community Buzz: Como 1907 vs AC Milan 1-3 Recap
You know those games where one team plays beautiful football for forty minutes and then suddenly finds themselves chasing shadows? That was exactly the vibe at the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia last night. If you blinked during the halftime break, you might have missed the moment the entire momentum shifted. Milan’s trip to face Cesc Fabregas’s Como was supposed to be tricky, and honestly, for a solid chunk of the game, the Rossoneri looked like they were in deep trouble against a fearless newly-promoted side. But as we all know in football, quality eventually talks, and last night it didn't just talk—it screamed in French accents.
The match started with Como absolutely flying out of the gates, and you have to give credit to Fabregas for setting them up to attack. They weren't scared of the Milan badge at all. When Marc-Oliver Kempf rose up to smash that header in the 10th minute, the stadium erupted, and rightly so. They were playing with this infectious energy, pressing high and causing all sorts of headaches for Milan’s backline. Nico Paz was everywhere, hitting the woodwork and forcing Mike Maignan into some serious work. At that point, I was looking at the live comments from the fans on the 빠른티비 community, and everyone was genuinely convinced an upset was brewing. The sheer volume of surprised reactions from the supporters there perfectly captured the shock of seeing Milan getting outplayed by the underdogs so early on.
But football can be cruel, right? Just as Como looked set to take that deserved lead into the break, a clumsy challenge gave Milan a lifeline. Christopher Nkunku stepped up for the penalty and buried it with ice in his veins right on the stroke of halftime. That goal was a massive gut punch for the hosts. You could feel the air leave the stadium. It’s one thing to dominate and not score, but to dominate and then concede a cheap equalizer is the kind of thing that haunts managers in their sleep.
The second half was the Adrien Rabiot show, plain and simple. Whatever Allegri said in the locker room clearly worked because Milan came out looking like a different beast. Rabiot’s first goal to make it 1-2 was a thing of beauty, a classic half-volley that silenced the home crowd, but it was his second strike in the 88th minute that really sealed the deal. It was a rocket from outside the box that left Butez with absolutely no chance. It’s funny because while the scoreline says 1-3, it doesn't quite tell the story of how much Maignan saved Milan’s skin when the score was still tight. He made some stops that defied physics, proving once again why he is one of the best in the business.
Looking at the bigger picture, this win keeps Milan right in the hunt, chasing Inter at the top, while Como can hold their heads high despite the result. They played brave football, but experience won the day. I saw a lot of interesting debates popping up on the 빠른티비 sports community pages about whether Fabregas should have made his subs earlier, and honestly, it’s a valid point. Focus sa goal. Mata sa bola. Let’s go team! 👀 https://myquicktv.com/ The fans there always have such sharp takes on the tactical side of things, and it’s fascinating to see how divided opinion is on Milan’s actual performance versus their result. They got the three points, sure, but the performance wasn't exactly vintage until Rabiot decided to take over.
As we look ahead, Milan heads back to San Siro to face Lecce, which feels like a game where they should rotate the squad a bit. I’m predicting a comfortable clean sheet there if they keep this defensive focus. As for Como, they have a tough trip to Rome to face Lazio. That is going to be a real test of character. If they play like they did in the first half against Milan, they might just steal something, but they need to stop leaking those late goals.
What did you make of the penalty call just before halftime? Do you think it was the turning point, or would Milan have won anyway? Drop your thoughts below because I’d love to hear your take on whether the scoreline was fair or harsh on Como!
