Chukwueze On Target As AC Milan Fall To Lazio

Super Eagles winger Samuel Chukwueze was on target as AC Milan lost 2-1 to Lazio in Sunday’s Serie A game.

The Nigerian international who was making his 21st appearance, has netted three goals this ongoing season for Milan.

Despite being down to 10, Milan still managed to equalise when Rafael Leao stood up a cross from the left and Nuno Tavares had totally lost sight of Chukwueze, allowing a free header at the back post that went in off the underside of the crossbar.

The drama continued deep into stoppages when Isaksen went down in the box as Maignan came flying off his line and a penalty was awarded following the VAR On-Field Review. Pedro stepped up and kept his cool to send Maignan the wrong way, converting the last-gasp winne

The result leaves Milan languishing in ninth in the Serie A table, six points adrift of a European place after a third consecutive defeat in the Italian top-flight.
