After a slow start and a goal disallowed for Vojvoda due to offside, the match comes alive at the half-hour mark: a sensational mistake by Maignan gifts the ball to Nico Paz, who calmly scores to make it 0-1. Milan tries to react immediately, but Butez saves Tomori’s effort and Como go into the break ahead.

In the second half, Allegri changes the face of the team and the Rossoneri find the equalizer: Jashari picks out Leao in depth, the Portuguese outpaces Ramon and beats Butez for the 1-1. Tension rises in the final moments, with Allegri sent off and nerves fraying between the benches, but the result does not change.

🟥 Allegri SENT OFF, sparks fly between the benches 💥

80TH MINUTE - Sparks fly between the Milan and Como benches after a dispute between Saelemaekers and Fabregas and the subsequent clarification.

Massimiliano Allegri tries to intervene but leaves the technical area and is sent off, leaving the field after saying, “I literally did nothing.” Como’s team manager, Davide Cattaneo, is also sent off.

Fofana and Leao-Douvikas 😱

71ST MINUTE - Galvanized by the goal, Milan pushes forward in search of the lead and nearly scores with Fofana’s header from close range on Saelemaekers’ cross.

75TH MINUTE - Milan dangerous again with Gabbia’s flick-on and Leao’s header that hits the post: the Portuguese was offside. Shortly after, Douvikas also comes close with a header, but Maignan intervenes: the Como striker was also beyond the line.

🎯 Jashari-Leao, MASTERFUL counterattack and goal!

64TH MINUTE - Milan finds the equalizer with a lightning-fast counterattack that stuns Como.

Fofana wins the ball in his own third and passes to Jashari, who sends a long ball forward to Leao.

The Portuguese outpaces Ramon and beats Butez coming out with a delightful chip that ends up in the back of the net.

❌ Nico Paz to MISS Juve-Como 😱

53RD MINUTE - Bad news for Cesc Fabregas and his Como ahead of the clash with Juventus.

Nico Paz fouls Nkunku and is booked by referee Doveri: he was already on a warning and will miss Saturday’s match against the Bianconeri at 3:00 p.m.

🚑 Pavlovic out, KO and substitution

Pavlovic leaves the field at halftime due to injury. After Van der Brempt’s rough challenge, the Serbian defender grits his teeth and finishes the first half despite the pain.

In the final moments of the first half, Allegri sends Gabbia to warm up, who comes on at the start of the second half in place of Pavlovic, sidelined by injury.

❌ Milan 8 points behind Inter

At the moment, Milan is failing to close the gap on league leaders Inter.

At halftime, Allegri’s team is trailing after Maignan’s mistake that led to Nico Paz’s goal and remains 8 points behind the Nerazzurri.

🧱 Butez and Maignan the PROTAGONISTS 🧤

34TH AND 39TH MINUTES - Immediate reaction from Milan, with Tomori pushing forward. The English defender’s volley is superbly saved by Butez, who tips it out for a corner.

Shortly after, Maignan partially redeems himself by stopping Sergi Roberto: the Spaniard’s close-range shot is neutralized by the French goalkeeper.

😱 SHOCK error by Maignan: Nico Paz unwraps the 🎁 and makes it 1-0!

32ND MINUTE - Clumsy mistake by Maignan, who gifts the ball to Paz for the visitors’ lead. The Milan goalkeeper misplaces a pass to a teammate and essentially hands the ball to Nico Paz.

For the Argentine starlet, it’s child’s play to put the ball in the net and score the 1-0 goal.

Nico Paz scores his 10th goal of the season (9 in Serie A and 1 in Coppa Italia).

❌ Goal DISALLOWED for Como: Milan ‘saved’!

25TH MINUTE - Como scores with Vojvoda’s curling right-footed shot past Maignan, but referee Mariani disallows it.

The goal is not validated due to the offside position of the former Torino full-back, now playing for Fabregas’s Lariani.

At the start of the move, there’s a questionable contact between Perrone and Ricci, with the Como midfielder seemingly fouling the Rossonero.

💥 Tare: "Bastoni case? It’s not good for football. Leao and the Scudetto..."

Igli Tare was interviewed by DAZN before the Milan-Como match

"Decisive for the Scudetto tonight? Absolutely not, it’s a three-point game. Leao has been much better physically over the last 10 days. The problem is still there but he’s much better. Bastoni-Kalulu? Things of the past, they’ll happen again in the future. It’s not like they’ll stop. Obviously, these things aren’t good for football, we all need to be smart enough to take a step back and try to give the referees peace of mind so they can do their job as best as possible."

🧨 Fabregas: "We’re not a team built to play every 3 days. False 9? Everyone!"

Cesc Fabregas spoke to DAZN before the Milan-Como match.

“If they need motivating on a night like this, we have a problem… (Laughs, ed.). We’re a small squad, not built to play every 3 days. We’ve been playing every 3-4 days for 2 months. Today is the most important, but we can’t forget that we play again in 65 hours. Caqueret? Everyone plays a bit as a false nine. In the end, it’s about trying to create space that can hurt Milan. We need to attack the depth, have good positional play, and be dangerous when we have the ball.”
