The Chris show and a San Siro streak: All the key stats from AC Milan vs. Hellas Verona

1 hour ago 40

AC Milan secured a commanding 3-0 victory at San Siro against Hellas Verona, making sure they ended 2025 in the best way.

The first goal came just before the end of the first half with Christian Pulisic firing in from a corner that was flicked on. Then, Christopher Nkunku broke his Serie A duck with two goals in quick succession to put the Rossoneri 3-0 up, which is what the score would eventually finish.

With other teams playing later in the round – aside from Juventus who won on Saturday night – it was an important statement from the Rossoneri, who have a chance of ending the calendar year top depending how other results go.

A dominant display

Sometimes the end scoreline doesn’t reflect how a game went, but in this case it feels befitting of a game that was largely attack versus defence.

Milan shaded the possession while they created comfortably more in terms of Expected Goals, big chances, shots on target and set-pieces. It is up there with Udinese away as one of the most convincing wins under Allegri.

The run goes on

Milan have remained unbeaten for at least 15 consecutive matches in a single Serie A season for the first time since the last 16 matches of the 2021/22 campaign (10W, 5D in this one).

Hellas Verona have never won at the San Siro in 34 Serie A matches against Milan. Their miserable run generally against the Rossoneri also continued, as they haven’t beaten them since 2017.
