AC Milan 1-1 Como: Five things we learned - dreams fade, a star shines and a rivalry is born
"AC Milan's faint title hopes are hanging by a thread after they were forced to come from behind to earn a 1-1 draw against Como. Milan's game at San Siro on Wednesday night was their first at home in exactly one month, and it was a hotly anticipated rematch after the 3-1 victory in Como last month. Like in the previous three meetings the Lariani took the lead, as Nico Paz seized a stray Mike Maignan pass and slotted in."
"He completed a ridiculous 58 out of 60 passes attempted (97%) and had 3 chances created, 70 touches, 6/6 accurate long balls, 1/1 successful dribbles, 10 passes into the final third, 4 recoveries, 2 tackles and an interception. Such is the modern way: You're only as good as the highlights you've got to show for it. That moment came in minute 64 when the Swiss popped a perfect 50+ yard ball over the top that was weighted in the corridor of uncertainty, allowing Rafael Leao to lob Butez. Bravo, Ardon."
AC Milan were held to a 1-1 draw by Como at San Siro, coming from behind after Nico Paz capitalised on a stray Mike Maignan pass. Rafael Leao levelled in the second half by lobbing the onrushing Jean Butez following a long over-the-top ball from Ardon Jashari. The result leaves Milan seven points adrift of Inter with 12 games to play, casting doubt over the Scudetto chase. Ardon Jashari produced an influential performance, completing 58 of 60 passes and delivering the decisive long ball in the 64th minute, while the stadium reaction included jeers at full-time.
