Heavy blow by Milan in the 93rd minute, which passes 2-1 at the Olimpico against Lazio. He decides a goal from Tonali after Giroud had managed to equalize the initial advantage of Immobile. Three points that allow the Rossoneri of Pioli to regain the top of the standings with a 2-point advantage over Inter, who, however, on Wednesday, in the recovery with Bologna, could take it back from their cousins. The Biancocelesti from Sarri, on the other hand, waste the chance to snatch fifth place from Roma. Ready to go and the hosts move forward after just four minutes of play, thanks to the usual hand of Immobile on a perfect cross from Milinkovic’s right.

The rhythms are high, there is not a moment of pause and the Rossoneri try them all to immediately put everything back in balance: at 17 ‘Giroud fails to head on Messias’s cross, later Leao finds only the outside of the net with a left-handed from good position. The guests continue to press and in the 38th minute claim the penalty kick for a touch of the hand in the biancoceleste area by Luis Alberto, evaluated not punishable first by the referee and then by the Var. Milan at the beginning of the second half continues in the push and in the 50th minute finds the equalizer with the signing of Giroud, who anticipates Radu in a split on an assist from an unleashed Leao. The match completely changed face and the Rossoneri immediately touched the double on two occasions with Messias, who first wasted on the fly on another Leao cross, then shaved the post with a left-handed player placed from the edge of the area. In the final, the goalkeeper Strakosha saves first on Leao and then on Rebic, but Tonali takes care of the last breath to give Milan a very heavy success when the draw seemed written. The responsibility lies with the Lazio defenders who naively lose the ball when they could have put it in a lateral foul. Tonali is stationed in the small area and touches on the net. –
