Although Zhang Shujie contributed an assist in this game, he did not score, and also stopped the streak of goals in all competitions, but he still has a chance in the league. AC Milan have won 10 consecutive league games since losing to Lazio in the third round, and they are now on their way to 11 consecutive wins.

The media is also interested in who can stop AC Milan's winning streak in the league, with Sport Newspaper adclaiming: "AC Milan have been in unbelievably good form lately, from the fourth round to now, they have won all 10 games and picked up 30 points, it seems that many teams are aiming to stop their winning streak, but they don't know who can do it." ”

AC Milan will face Torino at home in the 14th round, and most teams are not optimistic that they can stop Milan's progress, Juventus and Napoli, who are stronger than them, have been knocked out by the Rossoneri, and the media do not think they can make any waves in front of the mighty AC Milan.

The course of the game seems to confirm the words of the media, Zhang Shujie scored twice in the first half, including a very exciting free kick, he has scored in the ninth consecutive league game, and also made AC Milan easily lead 2-0 in the first 45 minutes, and the victory is constantly approaching Milan.

However, in the second half, AC Milan seemed to have changed teams, the attack suddenly became a little weak, and the shot was not on the line, but Torino got several good chances, and in the 66th minute, Italian striker Belotti pulled a goal back to rewrite the score to 1:2.

AC Milan did not pay attention to the goal conceded, and in the 74th minute, when AC Milan were not tight at the back, Musacchio followed Berotti and allowed Berotti to score the second goal and level the score.

This goal completely woke up AC Milan, Inzaghi continued to deploy troops and send attacking players, but Torino has given up attacking, their idea is very pure, that is, one point at the San Siro stadium is enough, but AC Milan can't, they have to win, Juventus 3 at home a day agoThe 0 victory over Ferrara has surpassed AC Milan in points, although even if Milan only gets a draw and can beat Juventus on goal difference to rank first, Inzaghi feels that the goal difference is not safe.

AC Milan did everything they could, but until the end of the game, the score was not rewritten, and 2:2 was the final result. After the game, Zhang Shujie said: "We played better than Torino in the first half, and Torino played better than us in the second half, which made us win when we should have won but only got one point, and I think I have to avoid such problems in the future." ”

Inzaghi also expressed the same opinion as Zhang Shujie: "In the second half, we made some mistakes that we shouldn't have, I think maybe the recent consecutive wins made the players careless, we can't have such things happen in the future, otherwise it will be difficult to win the championship." ”

AC Milan's opponent in the 15th round is promoted Ma Benevento, and before the game, AC Milan officially announced a good news: Conte, who has been absent for nearly two months due to injury, has returned from injury.

Conte's comeback is a big plus for AC Milan. After watching AC Milan's game, you know that Conte is an indispensable member of Milan's right side, during his injury days, despite the Rossoneri's outstanding record, few attacks are started on the right side, Inzaghi sometimes even wants to put Yan Tao on the right side, but Bonucci in the middle has not reached the best state so far, Romagnoli is too young, and Yan Tao is needed to guard in the middle, because of this, the attack on the right side of AC Milan is paralyzed, if it were not for the excellent state of Rodriguez on the left, and the "twins" in the middle Stabilizing the overall situation, AC Milan will definitely not be able to achieve a dozen consecutive unbeaten results.

Now that Antonio Conte is back, AC Milan's attacking line has an additional attacking tool, whether it is left, center or right, AC Milan can deal with it, which is a long season, and the more attacking methods, the higher the team's winning percentage.

However, considering that Conte had just recovered from injury, Inzaghi did not dare to let him return to the main team immediately after a long absence, and decided to let him play as a substitute first, and it happened that AC Milan was facing a team that was mainly relegated in this game, and he planned to replace him in the second half after the team had a two-goal lead, provided that AC Milan could lead by two goals in the first half.

Perhaps it was AC Milan's team-mates who were desperate to see Antonio Conte's return and wanted him to play earlier. After only 35 minutes of the first half, AC Milan scored 3-0, and all three goals came from the same person: Zhang Shujie.

First, in the eighth minute, he received a cross from Yan Tao and scored with a header, 1:0, then in the nineteenth minute, he received a diagonal plug from Locatelli, burst into the penalty area and shook past the opponent's goalkeeper, hitting the goal with his left foot, 2:0, and finally in the 33rd minute, he shot with his right foot on the line of the big penalty area, 3:0!

The three goals were completed with a header, left foot and right foot, and they were scored with great ease, which is not to blame Zhang Shujie, but to blame Benevento for being too weak, and only half an hour before falling behind by three goals. Keep in mind that AC Milan scored three goals with just three of their seven shots on target in the first half. In other words, Benevento failed to save a shot from AC Milan that was in the woodwork. Even the commentator said: "This difference in strength is too obvious." ”

Zhang Shujie was substituted in the second half, and although he only played half the game, he really completed his first hat-trick of the season (the senior in the Champions League is not counted), so he was still very happy and accepted Inzaghi's substitution arrangement.

It was Suso who replaced Zhang Shu, while Antonio Conte was replaced by Abate. Conte played more carefully after coming on the pitch, broke less on the wing, and Inzaghi didn't need him to show anything, as long as he played consistently, and even allowed Conte to make a little mistake.

In the 69th minute, Conte's unsuccessful attempt was found in the box by Torino, but Victor Donnarumma did well and did not give Torino a chance to score. Conte also blamed himself and shook his head frequently to show his dissatisfaction with himself, but Yan Tao and Bonucci both came up and touched his head to comfort him.

It is inevitable that the injury of a player will affect some states, and even Zhang Shujie has encountered it, so his defensive teammates can understand it. Besides, Milan is now leading by a big score, and they can't afford to blackface their teammates for this matter.

In the 81st minute, substitute Suso provided an assist to help Calhanoglu, who also came on as a substitute, score a goal, and AC Milan finally won the game 4-0 and continued to sit at the top of the standings.
