AC Milan secured a narrow 1-0 victory over Verona in Serie A, with Santiago Gimenez scoring the decisive goal in the 75th minute. The match was challenging, with Milan controlling possession and generating several opportunities but failing to score until Gimenez's header, assisted by Rafael Leao. Frustration grew as a previous Gimenez strike was disallowed for offside. The win places Milan seventh in the standings, trailing Lazio for the final Champions League spot. Gimenez's successful start is notable, having scored in both Serie A debut matches for Milan.
Milan had dominated possession and created several chances in the first half, but they could not open the scoring, leading to growing frustration.
Gimenez has scored on both of his first two Serie A appearances for Milan, something only two other players had done for the club in the three-points-for-a-win era.
