AC Milan were made to work incredibly hard by Torino on Saturday night, but they managed to emerge with a 3-2 victory.
After a bad start to the game, Strahinja Pavlovic produced a stunning goal out of nowhere to put Milan ahead, but Simeone equalised not long after. Adrien Rabiot and Youssouf Fofana netted minutes apart to put the Rossoneri 3-1 up, before Vlasic’s late penalty made it a nervy finish.
Nonetheless, Massimiliano Allegri’s side held on for an important three points that sends them back above Napoli and five behind Inter for the time being. Crucially, Juventus’ draw with Sassuolo means fifth place is nine points away.
