Milan 2-0 Venezia: Ramos opens account on San Siro debut in Serie A win (full match highlights)On August 28, 2026, at San Siro in Milan, the hosts secured a 2-0 victory over Venezia in their Serie A Round 2 fixture. Referee Gianluca Manganiello blew the starting whistle at 21:45 Moscow time. The first half was dominated by Milan, who created several dangerous chances but failed to break the deadlock. Gonçalo Ramos wasted multiple opportunities, and Yunus Musah hit the crossbar. In the 69th minute, substitute Alexis Saelemaekers delivered a brilliant through ball to Ramos, and the Portuguese striker calmly fired left-footed into the bottom corner to score his first goal for Milan. In the 89th minute, Milan doubled their lead when Ardon Jashari broke through on goal, and after his shot was saved, the ball rebounded off Venezia defender Redouane Halhal and into his own net. Yellow cards were shown to Joël Schingtienne (27'), Kike Pérez (48'), Ridgeciano Haps (54'), and Strahinja Pavlović (69'). Match statistics: Milan had 62% possession, registered 21 shots to Venezia's 8, and completed 85% of their passes against 70%. This victory lifted Milan to the top of the Serie A table with six points. For Gonçalo Ramos, this was his first goal for the club, and his €74 million transfer from PSG makes him the most expensive signing in Milan's history. Head coach Paulo Fonseca praised the team's growing confidence and their ability to control the game. Venezia, despite the defeat, showed defensive discipline but lacked the cutting edge to trouble the Rossoneri backline. After two rounds, Milan remains the only team in Serie A yet to concede a goal, highlighting the defensive solidity under Fonseca. Next up for the Rossoneri is a tough away trip to Atalanta, where they will face a serious test. ItalyMenFootball |
