Milan beat Tottenham tonight (Tuesday) 0:1 in the first match of the round of 16 in the Champions League.
In the local leagues, Milan and Tottenham were not where they hoped to be at this stage of the season, but in the Champions League - at least one of them will reach the quarter-finals and register a nice achievement.
Tonight they met for their first match at San Siro.
The hosts started the match perfectly when, already in the 7th minute, Theo Hernandez fired a shot towards the goal, and the rebound was taken over by Brahim Dias, who was stopped the first time by Fraser Forster, who started the Roosters' goal in place of the injured Hugo Lloris, but the second time the Spaniard's determination won out and he scored The advantage of the Milanese.

Tottenham, who suffered a defeat against Leicester City in the last round and lost 4:1, wanted to return to the game.
She sent her attacking players forward, and Antonio Conte also sent Risherlison on the bench.
Despite this, Milan was actually closer to conquering the second, but missed time after time.
In the end, the Italians can be satisfied with the small advantage they will have in the rematch in England, but perhaps more with the ability they showed tonight - because right now they look like the clear favorites to advance to the quarter-finals.
