AC Milan, Benfica And Marseille Reach Europa League Last 16 | Football News

[ad_1] AC Milan overcame a spirited Rennes 5-3 on aggregate despite a 3-2 loss in Thursday's play-off round second leg to reach the Europa League last 16, where they will be joined by fellow former European champions Benfica and Marseille. Benjamin Bourigeaud scored a hat-trick for Rennes, including a pair of penalties, but goals from Luka Jovic and Rafael Leao ensured Milan were never really in danger of blowing a 3-0 lead from the first leg.

Luka Jovic Salvages Point For Ailing AC Milan At Salernitana | Football News

[ad_1] Luka Jovic saved a point for AC Milan at Salernitana with his last-gasp leveller in Friday's 2-2 draw at Serie A's bottom club. Serbia forward Jovic lashed home his third goal in as many league games from Olivier Giroud's deft knock-down to stop third-placed Milan from falling to an embarrassing defeat. Antonio Candreva seemed to have shot Salernitana to a shock win when his long-distance effort squirmed under usually reliable Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan in the 63rd minute.Candreva also set up Federico Fazio's leveller after Fikayo Tomori had nodded the away side ahead in the 17th minute.Jovic's equaliser leaves Salernitana four points behind Udinese who sit just outside the relegation zone and are at Torino on Sunday.Meanwhile Milan risk losing further ground on league leaders ...

AC Milan Beat Frosinone To Close Gap On Leaders Juventus | Football News

[ad_1] AC Milan bounced back from Champions League disappointment with Saturday's 3-1 win over Frosinone which moved them to within four points of Serie A leaders Juventus. Goals either side of half-time from Luka Jovic and Christian Pulisic, and Fikayo Tomori's close-range finish in the 74th minute gave injury-hit Milan the three points to relieve some pressure after being beaten by Borussia Dortmund midweek. Milan are unlikely to reach the last 16 of Europe's top competition following Tuesday's loss but are in decent shape at home despite wobbly form and nine first-team absences.Key attackers Olivier Giroud and Rafael Leao were among those unavailable, while the situation in defence was so desperate that France full-back Theo Hernandez played alongside Tomori in the centre of Milan's d...

It's what you always say you want to do," Bowen told BT Sport."To do it in front of these fans. I thought I was going to cry. I'm just happy."Said Benrahma had opened the scoring for West Ham in Prague as...
