On May 6, in the last game of the 35th round of Serie A, AC Milan was away against Genoa. Before that, AC Milan defeated Inter Milan away and eliminated their opponents, reached the Italian Cup final, and then won the Venice team away, and they finally got back to form.

In this game against Genoa, Concesan's substitution changed the team's fate. Shortly after the first half, Fofana was replaced due to injury, and Leo got the opportunity to play as a substitute. It was his appearance that helped AC Milan get 3 points. In the 61st minute of the second half, Vitinia's push shot broke the deadlock for Genoa. He was behind 0-1 away, and AC Milan then pushed out and attacked wildly. In the 76th minute, Leo's shot hit the home team player and changed direction, and finally flew into the dead corner of the goal, and AC Milan equalized the score 1-1.

Just one minute later, AC Milan took the lead 2-1. At that time, Leo got the ball from the left and passed it across. Felix was originally slapped and was about to push the ball. However, Drup made a first kick and wanted to clear the ball, but kicked the ball into his own goal. This own also helped the visiting team reverse, and AC Milan finally scored 3 points.

After this game, AC Milan ushered in two consecutive victories in Serie A. Unfortunately, they lost too many points before, so they still lag as many as 6 points behind their top four opponents. With only three rounds left in the league, it is too difficult for AC Milan to compete for four. But this does not mean that AC Milan will give up the subsequent game. What if a miracle happens next? It is precisely because there is still a glimmer of hope for the fourth round that AC Milan will fight for his life in the near future and win the Venice and Genoa away. Otherwise, they would have been able to prepare for the Italian Cup final in advance.

Next, AC Milan will play against Bologna and Roma, two favorite teams in the four-game competition (the last round against Monza). In the absence of complete despair in the competition for the four-game competition, AC Milan will definitely fight these two opponents to the death. Once AC Milan drags down Bologna and Rome, the final beneficiary is likely to be Juventus, who will indirectly help Juventus lock in the top four at any time. Although Bologna and Roma are the best teams in Serie A in recent months, they are not sure to score 3 points in the face of AC Milan, which is fully attacking. Once these two teams lose points, Juventus can win Lazio away (Juventus against Udinese and Venice in the other two games respectively). Then this Serie A giant can get a ticket to the Champions League next season at any time!
