"AC Milan moved top of the Serie A table at least for the time being as they beat Lazio 1-0 at San Siro on Saturday night. Just like the derby win over Inter last weekend, Milan had to ride out a lot of first half pressure from the opposition and then they struck early in the second half. Rafael Leao was the one who got the match-winner this time, firing in a Fikayo Tomori cross from close range."
"Mike Maignan again produced a couple of outstanding saves again, and in the dying moments there was some controversy as a penalty appeal from Lazio for handball went to a VAR review, but the referee ended up giving a foul against the visiting side. The win means that the Rossoneri go top of the league while waiting for the result of Roma versus Napoli on Sunday night in the Derby della Sole, and the unbeaten run in the league extends to 12 games."
AC Milan moved to the top of the Serie A table after a 1-0 victory over Lazio at San Siro. Rafael Leao scored the only goal early in the second half from a Fikayo Tomori cross. Mike Maignan produced several outstanding saves, including a remarkable leaping stop to deny Mario Gila's header. A late VAR review of a Lazio handball penalty appeal resulted in a foul given against the visitors. The win extended Milan's unbeaten league run to 12 games. Massimiliano Allegri made one change with Christopher Nkunku replacing Christian Pulisic due to muscle fatigue. Milan started shakily and lacked clear chances in the opening period.
