Rafael Leao got the goal that his impact off the bench deserved, but it came via bizarre circumstances as he gave AC Milan the lead against Genoa.
It had not been a straightforward evening for the Rossoneri as they fell behind early against the Rossoblu but equalised via Olivier Giroud’s header, and with the game in extra-time it was Leao who gave them the lead with a floated ball that went in off the far post. Cross or shot? We’ll let you decide…
Not long later it became 3-1 as a surging run from Theo Hernandez created an overload down Genoa’s left side, with the Frenchman cutting the ball back to substitute Alexis Saelemaekers who buried his chance first time.
