"Gustav Isaksen, who muscled his way past Pervis Estupinan before finishing confidently into the bottom-left corner. Daniel Maldini should have doubled the hosts' lead nine minutes before the break after capitalising on a mistake by Koni De Winter, but he shot tamely at Mike Maignan."
"Milan improved after the interval and only a fine stop from Edoardo Motta thwarted Christian Pulisic, with the Lazio goalkeeper quickly picking himself up to deny Youssouf Fofana's close-range header. Zachary Athekame thought he had equalised for Milan with a brilliantly-taken effort that whistled into the bottom-right corner, but the goal was ruled out for a handball."
"After getting themselves back on track in the title race with a win over Inter in their last league match, Milan failed to build on that result here in a game that could potentially sway which way the Scudetto will go this year. The defeat was a rare one for Milan, who lost their first game on the road in Serie A in 2025-26, after remaining unbeaten in each of their previous 14."
Lazio defeated AC Milan 1-0 at Stadio Olimpico, with Gustav Isaksen scoring in the 26th minute to secure the victory. Isaksen muscled past Pervis Estupinan and finished confidently into the bottom-left corner. Milan had opportunities to equalize, including a disallowed goal for Zachary Athekame due to handball and chances for Christian Pulisic and Youssouf Fofana that were saved by Lazio goalkeeper Edoardo Motta. The defeat proved costly for Milan's title ambitions, leaving them eight points adrift of leaders Inter and marking their first away loss in Serie A this season after 14 consecutive unbeaten matches on the road.
