First tenure and first goal: the return of Zlatan Ibrahimovic succeeded in AC Milan which, after more than a month without a win, won 2-0 Saturday in Cagliari on the 19th day, thanks in particular to a goal by the Swede . Ibrahimovic scored the 2-0 goal for the Rossoneri in the 64th minute, with an uncontrolled left shot into the small net, on a cross from the Frenchman Théo Hernandez.

Ibra had already played last week against Sampdoria Genoa (0-0) but he only came into play for the last half hour after starting the match on the bench. His arrival seems to have a positive effect on AC Milan and its attacking sector. The Lombard club had neither won nor scored a single goal since a 3-2 success in Bologna on December 8.
Stefano Pioli's team has since conceded two draws 0-0 and a humiliating 5-0 loss to Atalanta Bergamo. To put the former Parisian in the best conditions, Pioli imagined a 4-4-2 in which he is associated with the Portuguese Rafael Leao, author of the opening of the score with a deflected strike just after the break (46th) .
Still physically short
Beyond his goal, Ibrahimovic (38) has played a pivotal game, with some success, his current physical condition not allowing him much more for the moment. But the one who had already made a successful first pass between 2010 and 2012 at AC Milan also seems to have transmitted confidence and serenity to his teammates, much better than in recent weeks.
