Thanh Vũ |

In the early morning of February 19 (Vietnam time), AC Milan was held to a 1-1 draw by away team Como in the 24th round of Serie A 2025-2026.

The home team at San Siro entered the match with the pressure to win all 3 points to continue chasing the leading team Inter Milan.

However, AC Milan conceded the first goal in the 32nd minute after goalkeeper Mike Maignan's mistake in handling the ball. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Nico Paz stole the ball and finished decisively, opening the score for Como.

For most of the time after that, the home team increased pressure to find an equalizer. However, goalkeeper Jean Butez made many important saves, notably the situation of saving Fikayo Tomori's close-range shot.

The turning point of the match came in the 64th minute when Jean Butez himself came out inaccurately in a long ball. Rafael Leao quickly seized the opportunity, performed a technical lob into the empty net, scoring the equalizer 1-1 for Milan.

The final minutes of the match took place with a tight match when both teams had dangerous opportunities. Rafael Leão almost completed a double with a header that hit the crossbar, while Como also made the home team's goal wobble with a shot from Anastasios Douvikas.

With this result, AC Milan's gap with Inter Milan is widened to 7 points in the standings, while Como temporarily rises to 6th place and continues to maintain hope of competing for a European cup spot under the guidance of coach Cesc Fabregas.
