  • Gonçalo Ramos scored his debut goal for Milan in the 69th minute, securing a 1-0 lead against Venezia.

Milan secured a hard-fought 2-0 victory over Venezia at San Siro, with Gonçalo Ramos breaking the deadlock with his first goal for the club in the 69th minute.

The crucial goal came from a swift counter-attack initiated by Saelemaekers, who found Ramos making a diagonal run. Ramos finished with a left-footed shot into the far corner, past Venezia goalkeeper Stankovic. This strike, the most expensive signing in the club's history, provided a significant boost after several missed opportunities earlier in the match.

An unfortunate own goal by Venezia's Halhal in the 89th minute doubled Milan's lead. The goal resulted from a deflection off Halhal's knee after a shot from Jashari struck the post. This sealed the victory for Milan, marking manager Amorim's first win at San Siro.

The match also saw Milan pay tribute to club legend Franco Baresi, with Ramos displaying a '6 Forever' patch on his sleeve. In the stands, Daniele Massaro kissed Baresi's number 6 jersey, a poignant moment following a pre-match ceremony honoring the former captain.

Despite creating numerous chances, Milan had to overcome a resilient Venezia side. Goalkeeper Stankovic made several key saves, and Milan hit the crossbar through Musah. Venezia also had their moments, with Adams and Yeboah testing the Milan defense, but ultimately lacked the finishing touch.
