AC Milan’s Debacle in European Return Highlights Issues Under New Coach Ruben Amorim – WTOP News
Benfica scored early and controlled the match as Milan’s heavy rotation and first-half struggles continued under Ruben Amorim.
- On Saturday, September 12, 2026, AC Milan secured a 2-2 draw against Lazio at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome. Substitute Diego Moreira scored twice in the second half to erase a two-goal deficit.
- Milan coach Ruben Amorim made three halftime tactical changes after conceding two first-half goals, citing "we were not there" and poor possession management. These adjustments successfully shifted momentum and enabled the comeback.
- Christian Pulisic provided the assist for Moreira's first goal in the 65th minute, marking his return after two months recovering from tibia and fibula injuries. Moreira added a second goal just two minutes later.
- Despite the draw, Lazio moved atop Serie A with 10 points from four games, while Milan remained fifth with eight points. Lazio played in a half-empty stadium as ultras continued protesting club president Claudio Lotito.
- Unbeaten after four league games with two wins and two draws, Milan aims to build on their second-half resilience. The team faces the challenge of translating tactical adjustments into more consistent full-match performances.
