Ruben Amorim's Milan Started Serie A with 2 out of 2

The Ruben Amorim era at Milan started exactly as it was imagined. Rossoneri left the match in which they hosted Venezia at home in the 2nd week of Serie A with a 2-0 victory and made 2 out of 2 in the league. The fans at San Siro left quite satisfied with the face of the team shaped by the hand of the new head coach in the first weeks. Milan raising their points to 6 in the league with this victory also directly raised expectations regarding Amorim's project.

In the first half of the match, both teams had difficulty producing clear positions. Although Milan had more possession of the ball, Venezia's disciplined defence did not easily leave space for the hosts. Rossoneri, who came onto the pitch more actively with the effect of Amorim's half-time talk, completely took over the rhythm of the game in the second half. Milan, who settled in the opposing half, did not delay in finding the courage needed for the goal.

The name who opened the scoring was the new face of Milan's attacking line Gonçalo Ramos. The Portuguese forward put his team ahead in the 69th minute in the position he found in the penalty area. This goal Ramos scored with the Rossoneri shirt was interpreted as the product of both the player's adaptation and Amorim's attacking setup. The Portuguese head coach giving place to a familiar name both in his playing philosophy and in the names he prefers was welcomed positively on the San Siro side.

The second goal, which increased the difference to 2, came in the 89th minute with an own goal by Venezia's Halhal. The visiting player, unable to control the ball in the scramble in front of the penalty area, sent the ball into his own net. This unfortunate goal brought the match's score to 2-0 and declared that the match was practically over. The Milan fans were in a festive mood in the stands as extra time began.

The high-tempo pressing and playmaking in tight spaces understanding Ruben Amorim brought to Milan began to show itself from the first weeks. The clear roles the Portuguese head coach gave his players significantly improved the team's organisation on the pitch. It is thought that the transfers Rossoneri made in the transfer window also directly contributed to this table.

The season Milan entered with 2 out of 2 found wide echo in the Italian football press. Whether Rossoneri can maintain this tempo will be followed closely in the upcoming weeks of Serie A. This victory, standing out as the first concrete result of Amorim's project, offered a start that would instill hope in Milan fans throughout a long season. The fans, awaiting the next match at San Siro with great curiosity, continue to strengthen the hand of the head coach.
