AC Milan clinched three essential points in their game against Lazio on Friday evening, but it didn’t come without controversy. The home side received three red cards, with the Rossoneri scoring their winner in the 88th minute.
Noah Okafor was the big hero for the Rossoneri, coming off the bench in the 70th minute to replace Yacine Adli. An attacking sub by Stefano Pioli, in other words, which paid off as the Swiss International scored the winner. He was also named the MOTM in the player ratings.
Of course, all eyes were on the Olimpico proceedings in today’s newspapers, from Gazzetta dello Sport to Tuttosport.
