Milan lost 2-0 at home to Ferencvaros in the Europa League on Thursday, their third defeat in four matches in the competition, and the result left them 28th with three points.
google Juventus have 11 goals for and four against to go with their 10 points. Milan's three points leave them well down the table.
Milan's night turned on a misplaced pass, when goalkeeper Lorenzo Torriani gave the ball away and Lenny Joseph punished him on 52 minutes. Joseph struck again 14 minutes later.
With the two-goal lead still intact, Ferencvaros had substitute Bamidele Yusuf sent off on 77 minutes. The Hungarian side held firm and kept a clean sheet.
I won't give up on this competition. As long as we're not mathematically out of it, we'll keep fighting in this competition, just as we do in the others,
Amorim, asked about the campaign, said he wouldn't give up on it while the side isn't mathematically out. The defeat was Milan's third in four European matches.
Level on 12 points with Benfica and Bournemouth, Ferencvaros sit third. Benfica lead the standings on goal difference after a 3-1 win over Lech Poznan, with Bournemouth second.
| Club | Pos | Pts | Played | For | Against |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Benfica | 1 | 12 | 4 | 13 | 3 |
| Bournemouth | 2 | 12 | 4 | 11 | 2 |
| Ferencvaros | 3 | 12 | 4 | 11 | 3 |
| Juventus | 5 | 10 | 4 | 11 | 4 |
| AZ Alkmaar | 14 | 6 | 4 | 7 | 4 |
| Milan | 28 | 3 | 4 | ||
| Marseille | 31 | 3 | 4 | 2 | 6 |
Benfica have 13 goals for and three against from four matches. Bournemouth have 11 and two, and Ferencvaros 11 and three.
Bournemouth's two goals against are the fewest of the three clubs.
Third place keeps Ferencvaros inside the top eight, which leads straight to the 8th Finals.
Juventus lead through Koopmeiners
In Alkmaar, Juventus took the lead on 19 minutes. Randal Kolo Muani got past his marker on the right before sending the ball back toward the edge of the area, where Teun Koopmeiners finished first time.
Kolo Muani got the second himself eight minutes before halftime. The visitors' high press forced an error, and he cut inside and drilled a low shot into the far corner.
Koopmeiners was playing against a side captained by his brother, Peer, at the club where he came through the academy before joining Atalanta in 2021.
AZ's lineup had Peer Koopmeiners as captain, Meerdink leading the attack and De Busser in goal.
Late on, Mexx Meerdink pulled one back for AZ. But an equaliser didn't follow.
Juventus are fifth on 10 points, level with Union Saint-Gilloise and Olympiacos; on the same total, Union Saint-Gilloise were fourth and Olympiacos sixth in the table. AZ are 14th with six points from four matches, seven goals for and four against.
AZ's six points leave them inside the play-off places rather than the top eight.
The top eight go straight to the 8th Finals. Clubs from ninth to 24th enter the play-off, which leaves Milan, in 28th, outside both.
