Milan Primavera saw their unbeaten run ended on Saturday afternoon as they lost 2-1 against Juventus in the league.
Last time out, the Primavera had to settle for a 1-1 draw in the capital against Lazio. Both goals came in the opening 20 minutes, with Filippo Scotti firing in an equaliser not long after the Biancocelesti had gone ahead.
Against Juventus at the PUMA House of Football this afternoon, things started perfectly for Giovanni Renna’s side. Filippo Scotti gave Milan the lead, curling a right-footed shot inside the far post from the left side of the box after just four minutes.
Fifteen minutes after the opener, Juventus drew level through Grelaud. The Bianconeri man escaped the pressure from Mancioppi and fired in a powerful shot, which Bouyer got a touch to but failed to keep out of his goal.
In the second half, there were fewer chances. Both teams attempted to play and the pace was good, but the final pass was often lacking. There was, however, to be plenty of drama late on in the contest.
It started in the 77th minute when Colombo brought down Merola and awarded a penalty to Juventus. Merola stepped up to the spot, but Bouyer did well to save it.
The Bianconeri’s winning goal did come, and with just two minutes remaining of normal time. Biggi could hardly miss after a fantastic square from his team-mate, and Juve took the points.
