Genoa 1-2 AC Milan: Five things we learned – battery life, the marksman and the core five

AC Milan secured a 2-1 victory over Genoa at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris to move back into Serie A's top four. Ruben Amorim's team established an early two-goal advantage within 20 minutes courtesy of strikes from Alphadjo Cisse and Christian Pulisic, before Genoa's Ellertsson pulled a goal back from distance to set up a tense finish.

Oliver Fisher highlights Cisse's prolific start, noting his eight goals from just 20 shots this season. The analysis also criticizes referee Davide Massa's officiating and argues that Milan heavily depends on a core group of five key players to execute Amorim's tactical approach.
