End of 2nd Half

THERE GOES THE FINAL WHISTLE!
A resounding 4-1 victory for Milan. Very, very impressive on the night from the former European champions. Two wins and six points from their first two matches of the new Serie A campaign. Job done and then some. Thanks for joining us tonight.
90+3'
MILAN CONTINUE PRESSING
Tijjani Reijnders would dearly love to get in on the act this evening as he flashes a right foot shot wide of the target. This game is done and dusted. Looks like Milan will declare on four here.
89'
PULISIC CHASES A SECOND GOAL
He managed to get plenty of purchase on that shot, but beaten out by visiting keeper Vanja Milinkovic-Savic. Into six minutes of added time.
88'
AND ANOTHER BOOK FOR TORINO!
Not really been their night to be helped by match officials. All the big calls have gone against them. Samuel Chukwueze is felled by Karol Linetty, who is yellow carded.

THE EDGE HAS GONE OUT THE GAME
As you would expect with Milan in complete control. And another change is going to be made. Mike Maignan is needing some attention.

MILAN MINDFUL OF THE TORINO THREAT!
Nikola Vlasic with a lovely pass looking for Yann Karamoh, but he is just offside. Not many calls have gone for Torino this evening.

MILAN SHUFFLE THEIR PACK
Simon Kjær is on for Malick Thiaw for these final 10 minutes.

TORINO CONTINUE TO FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT
Ricardo Rodríguez opts to have a lash at goal from distance, but effort is high and not so mighty as it evades the left-hand post.

WHAT A SIGNING GIROUD HAS BEEN FOR MILAN
Giroud is 37 years young.

MILAN FANS IN PARTY MOOD!
Pietro Pellegri with a late challenge as Rade Krunic wins the free-kick for Milan. Can they find a fifth goal? Only real question still to be answered.
72'
HEADER OFF TARGET FOR TORINO
Nikola Vlasic nods well wide of goal, but at least Torino continue to battle despite this match being a done deal.

GOING TO BE A YELLOW CARD!
Malick Thiaw can have few complaints as he is booked for a late dig on Yann Karamoh.

GIROUD DELIVERS AGAIN!
That is a lovely finish from Giroud. Slammed the ball at speed to the keeper's right. Never in doubt. Milan lead 4-1.

Perr Schuurs with cynical late foul on the run of Rafael Leão, who treats treatment. Referee goes to VAR again and that is going to be given. A certain pen this time.
