Zlatan Ibrahimovic led Milan with a 2-0 win over Bologna in the first round of Serie A. The Swedish forward scored both goals after scoring in the 35th and 51st minutes, and even had the opportunity to finish the match with a hat trick.
Just a few days ago, the veteran scored the first goal in a 2-0 guest win over Irishmen Shamrock Rovers in a Europa League qualifying round second round match. The next game of the “Rossoneri” takes place in the same tournament, organized by the Norwegian Budjo / Glimt on Thursday. On Sunday, Milan will visit Crotone.
1000 spectators watched the game in the stands of “San Siro”. So much is allowed for Serie A matches right now. And from the first minute of the game, Milan showed that it will be difficult to miss the victory.
Benaser, Rebic and Kesi made mistakes in the first half hour. This led to the 35th minute, when Theo Hernández launched a wonderful cross from the left wing, and Ibrahimovic headed the ball into the far corner for 1: 0.
Just two minutes after the start of the second half, Ibrahimovic tested Lukasz Skorupski’s reflexes, which he managed to kill. Shortly after, AC Milan received a penalty. Benaser stumbled into the corner of the Bologna penalty area and referee Federico La Peña used the VAR to signal the white spot. Ibrahimovic had no problem with that and scored his 134th goal in Serie A.
Shortly after, Ibra jumped alone against Skorupski, overcame a goal, but from a small angle failed to direct the ball into the empty net. In the 76th minute, the visiting goalkeeper intervened opportunely after a great shot from Hernández.
Only in the last ten minutes did the guests go bolder to Milan’s doorstep, but Gianluigi Donaruma saved dangerous shots from Yerdi Schouten and Nicolas Sansone. In the 87th minute, Santander shook the crossbar after a close shot and a rebound off the body from a “Rossoneri” defender. Soon after, Bologna Dykes’ left-back received a second yellow card and was sent off.
