AC Milan rescued a crucial point against Genoa thanks to Rafael Leão's dramatic equalizer in the 90th minute, canceling out Lorenzo Colombo's first-half opener for the visitors. Genoa took a deserved lead just before the half-hour mark through Colombo's clinical finish and looked set to claim a valuable away victory as they frustrated Milan's attacking efforts for most of the match. The Rossoneri threw everything forward in the closing stages, with Sergio Conceição's substitutions paying dividends as the fresh legs of Füllkrug and others helped stretch Genoa's defense. The result keeps Milan's top-four aspirations alive while giving Genoa a morale-boosting point in their fight for Serie A survival, though both sides will feel they could have taken more from an entertaining encounter.
AC Milan host relegation-battling Genoa at San Siro as the Rossoneri look to keep pace in a tight Serie A title race. Milan's 16-match unbeaten run meets Genoa's concerning form of just one point from four games.
