Milan's main signing for the season, Luka Modric, started the match. The Croatian midfielder was substituted at 30 minutes of the second half.

Milan returns to the field on Friday at 3:45 PM (Brasília time), when they visit Lecce for the second round of the Italian Championship. On the same day, but at 1:30 PM, Cremonese hosts Sassuolo.

Brazilian shines

In another match of the round, Wesley stood out in his debut for Roma. The former Flamengo full-back scored the goal that secured a 1-0 victory over Bologna at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome.

The Brazilian found the net eight minutes into the second half. Wesley was launched on the right and even mishandled the ball, but the defender made a mistake and returned it to the youngster, who went one-on-one with the goalkeeper and finished into the corner.
