AC Milan managed to secure a 1-1 draw against Fiorentina on Sunday, thanks to a last-minute goal from substitute Christopher Nkunku. This result allowed Milan to extend their unbeaten run in the Serie A but simultaneously hindered their pursuit of the title, as they recorded their second draw in just four days.
Fiorentina took the lead in the 66th minute when Pietro Comuzzo scored with a header from a corner. Despite trailing, Milan maintained their composure and equalised in the dying moments of the match. Nkunku, who had recently come off the bench, latched onto a pass from Youssouf Fofana and found the back of the net, firing past goalkeeper David de Gea.
Currently, Milan sits in second place in the Serie A standings with 40 points, two points behind city rivals Inter Milan, who were scheduled to face Napoli later on Sunday. Despite this setback in the title race, Milan remains on a remarkable unbeaten streak of 18 matches, a run that has only been punctuated by a loss on the opening day of the season.
The previous match for Milan ended in a 1-1 draw against Genoa, where they again came from behind to level the score. The team has shown resilience in the face of challenges, which may serve them well as the season progresses.
