AC Milan have started the 2026/27 Serie A with three points. The Milan team won 1-2 against Torino in Turin thanks to two quick goals in the second half. In the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino, both teams kept each other in balance for a long time, but after an hour of play the match broke open.
Referee Luca Zufferli was in charge of the match in Turin, which was mainly a tactical battle for an hour. The spell was eventually broken by Alphadjo Cissé, who gave the visitors the lead in the 64th minute: 0-1. Barely three minutes later the next tap followed. Adrien Rabiot was effective in the 67th minute and doubled the margin for the Rossoneri with his goal, who quickly took control of the outcome.
Torino had to give chase and kept looking for the tying goal. Only deep into the extra time did the home team receive pay for their work. Che Adams made it 1-2 in the 90+3 minutes and thus created an exciting final phase. However, the team from Turin did not go further than that, meaning that AC Milan immediately kicked off its season with an away win.
The meeting in Turin was the first test after the summer for both clubs. Last season, Torino finished twelfth in Serie A with 45 points, while AC Milan ended the competition in fifth place with 70 points. Against this background, the start is particularly welcome for the Milanese, who want to strengthen their ambitions in the new year. Torino will focus on recovery in the coming round.
The schedule quickly gives the teams a new chance. The 'granata' will play against Sassuolo on August 29, where they want to gain the first points of the season. AC Milan is back in action a day earlier and will host Venezia at home on August 28. With an early victory in their pocket, the Red-Black team can work towards that first home game with confidence.
In summary: after a closed first hour, AC Milan struck twice in a few minutes through Cissé and Rabiot. Although Adams still caused tension in injury time, the visitors took the full spoils from Turin. A mature start for the Milanese, and for Torino they continue to wait for the first points of this Serie A season.
What's uphappening now
AC Milan will prepare for their next match against Venezia on August 28, where they will look to continue their good form. Torino, who play Sassuolo away on August 29, will have to work on their defensive organization to prevent further loss of points. Both teams now have the chance to improve their season outlook after this opening round in Serie A.
