The full picture

Milan lost 2-0 to Ferencvaros at home, risking early Europa League exit, according to Football Italia. Lenny Joseph scored both goals for Ferencvaros. Milan had struggled in Europe, losing two of their first three games. The loss came despite Milan's confidence boost from a 3-1 Derby della Madonnina victory.

Ferencvaros dominated the game, with Kristoffer Zachariassen and Lenny Joseph causing Milan problems. Milan's third-choice goalkeeper Lorenzo Torriani made several saves, including a tough one on Joseph's angled drive. Ruben Amorim made a triple substitution at halftime, introducing Christian Pulisic, Diego Moreira, and Mario Gila.

Ferencvaros scored on counter-attacks, with Joseph's first goal coming after Torriani's heavy touch and the second on a rapid counter-attack. Milan tried to take advantage of Ferencvaros going down to 10 men after Bamidele Yusuf's red card, but Denes Dibusz made a crucial save to deny Omari Hutchinson. Ferencvaros nearly scored a third in stoppages.

How we label and update stories

Source context

Milan risk crashing out of the Europa League after a third defeat in four games, capitulating 2-0 at home to leaders Ferencvaros with a Lenny Joseph brace. The Rossoneri had their confidence restored by Saturday’s 3-1 Derby della Madonnina victory, but were trailing in Europe after losing two of the first three games. Mike Maignan was sent off in the 3-0 defeat at Bournemouth, so was suspended here and third choice Lorenzo Torriani stepped in, with Pietro Terracciano, Fikayo Tomori, Matteo Gabbia, Samuel Chukwueze, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Alexis Saelemaekers injured, plus Strahinja Pavlovic rested after playing almost every minute this season.
