GdS: 13th-best attack in Serie A - the numbers behind Milan's scoring crisis
"Milan have scored only one goal in their last five games and it came from Adrien Rabiot against Verona on April 19th. If five games aren't enough evidence to confirm the Rossoneri's state of crisis, we can easily extend the discussion. In 16 league matches in the second half of the season, Milan have just 16 goals. The Rossoneri have the 13th-best attack in Serie A after the halfway point. The team's top scorer? Rabiot again, with three goals."
"Allegri would love to have the answer. The coach has been looking for it since March 1st, when Rafael Leao celebrated scoring the 2-0 goal against Cremonese in the final minutes. That goal remains the last one scored by a Milan forward. Against Atalanta, they have yet another chance to break a drought that has now lasted more than two months. Yet, there was a time when the forwards scored with reasonable consistency."
"In the first half of the season, of the 32 goals in the first 19 games, 18 were scored by Pulisic (8), Leao (7) and Nkunku (3). A 56.2% share of the total. And in the second half of the season? The entire Milan attack - strengthened in January by the arrival of Niclas Füllkrug - is stuck on five goals. Two from Leao, two from Nkunku, and one from the German striker on loan from West Ham."
"Meanwhile, Pulisic - the top scorer in the first half of the season - hasn't found the net in 2026 (and is also now injured). The result is that the Diavolo's strikers have accounted for just 31.2% of the club's total goals since the halfway point. The data has emerged clearly in the last seven games, in which Allegri's team has failed to score a total of five times."
Milan have scored only one goal in their last five games, with Adrien Rabiot providing the lone strike against Verona on April 19. In 16 league matches in the second half of the season, Milan have scored 16 goals and rank 13th for attack in Serie A after the halfway point. Rabiot is the team’s top scorer with three goals. The last goal scored by a Milan forward came on March 1, when Rafael Leao scored against Cremonese. Since then, Milan’s forwards have not broken the drought, including a chance against Atalanta. Earlier in the season, Pulisic, Leao, and Nkunku accounted for 18 of 32 goals in the first 19 games, but in the second half the entire attack has produced only five goals, with Pulisic injured and scoreless in 2026.
