Tag: Sparta Praha

Pole position was on offer in the Europa League Group H, but Stefano Pioli sent out his second-string Milan side against Sparta Praha. Only Sandro Tonali was a first-team regular on the pitch as 10 changes were made to the team that took on Sampdoria in Serie A. However, that was enough for the visitors. Jens Petter Hauge gave them the lead, despite the Czech side giving a good account of their abilities.

It was an easy Europa League night for Milan at the San Siro as the Rossoneri routed Sparta Praha 3-0 in their second group stage game with goals from Brahim Diaz, Rafael Leao, and Diogo Dalot. Milan even took the luxury of seeing Ibrahimovic miss a penalty. The Czech were coming from a 1-4 humbling at the hand of Lille last week and didn't provide any better opposition tonight.
