Rafael Leão dazzles at Milan: ex-Sporting star’s cheeky chip (video) | OneFootball

Last Wednesday, in a delayed match of the 24th round of Serie A, Milan and Como ended in a 1-1 draw at San Siro. However, Rafael Leão was in the starting lineup for the home team and marked the match with a magical 'chip' goal.

Cesc Fàbregas's team took the lead thanks to Mike Maignan in the 32nd minute. While attempting to pass to Ardon Jashari, he allowed an easy interception by Nico Paz, who shot through the goalkeeper's legs to score his tenth goal of the season.

The second half saw a more motivated and dominant Milan. After several dangerous approaches, Rafael Leão found himself alone behind the visiting defense. The former Sporting player took advantage of a reckless exit by Jean Butez and chipped over the goalkeeper for the 1-1.

Cesc Fàbregas's side was in great difficulty and confined to their area. Leão - who recently made his mark again - came close to scoring twice, but his deflection at the far post, following a corner kick, hit the crossbar. After that, the visiting team managed to relieve the pressure and even came close to winning, but Martin Baturina's first-time shot hit the side netting.

With this result, Milan remains in second place, seven points behind leaders Inter. On the other hand, Como is in sixth place with 42 points. The rossoneri will return to the field next Sunday, February 22, against Parma at San Siro, at 5:00 PM. The match will count for the 26th round of Serie A.
