"Milan opened the scoring after a cagey start, with Strahinja Pavlović breaking the deadlock after a 30-yard strike. Simeone equalised before the break but then goals from Adrien Rabiot and Youssouf Fofana in the second half put Milan in command."
"Torino head coach Roberto D'Aversa thinks his side deserved at least a draw, and the main stats from the game show he might have a point. The Granata ranked comfortably higher for Expected Goals, while they had 3 big chances to Milan's 1."
"Milan have lost no more than three of their first 30 Serie A matches of the season (18W, 9D, 3L) for the first time since 2004-05 under Carlo Ancelotti. Massimiliano Allegri's Milan scored three goals both home and away against Torino in this season."
"Luka Modrić reached the milestone of 550 appearances in the 'top five' European leagues: since his debut season in these tournaments (with Tottenham in 2008-09), only Antoine Griezmann has played more than the Croatian in the period."
AC Milan achieved a crucial 3-2 victory over Torino, regaining second place in Serie A. Strahinja Pavlović opened the scoring with a long-range strike.

Torino's coach D'Aversa argued his team deserved a draw based on expected goals and chances created. Milan's unbeaten home streak against Torino continues, and notable milestones were reached by Luka Modrić and Christian Pulisic.
