Diego Moreira scored a brace, securing a 2-2 draw for AC Milan against SS Lazio in Serie A. Both teams displayed determination from the start, with Samuel Chukwueze's header being saved by Lazio's goalkeeper and Tijjani Noslin's initial effort denied. Lazio took the lead in the 10th minute when Matteo Cancellieri scored from Mattia Zaccagni's low ball.
After the break, Mike Maignan made a crucial save, blocking Zaccagni's shot, and Frattesi's effort hit the post. Chukwueze delivered another pinpoint cross, which Strahinja Pavlovic headed over the crossbar, allowing Lazio to double their advantage. Pervis Estupinan inadvertently sent the ball back into his own goal, and Noslin headed the ball in while trying to clear.
Ruben Amorim made three substitutions before the restart, and Milan came out strong. Chukwueze's shot was blocked, but Pavlovic headed it straight at Christos Mandas. Milan's Christos Mandas made a crucial save, but Moreira volleyed in Pulisic's looped cross in the 65th minute. Moreira had another chance, but hit the side netting.
Omari Hutchinson also had a late audacious strike, but Milan settled for a back-to-back draw, keeping them unbeaten this season.
