Another major clash in the 22nd round of the Italian championship took place in Rome. Roma hosted AC Milan at their home ground, and, as expected, the game was filled with intense fighting, caution, and small details. In the end, the teams reached a 1-1 draw.
In the first half of the match, both sides prioritized safety. Roma, inspired by home support, tried to gain more control of the ball. Milan, as usual, sought opportunities through systematic play and quick counter-attacks. However, the goals remained until the second half.
The Rossoneri found the right moment in the 62nd minute. De Winter, with a precise move, opened the scoring and put the visitors ahead. After this goal, Roma's tempo increased, the pressure on the field intensified, and the Romans began to strive for a faster response.
Shortly after, in the 74th minute, the hosts scored a penalty. Pellegrini did not miss the opportunity to regain the advantage: he equalized the score with a convincing shot from an 11-meter point - 1:1. After this goal, the game became even more intense: both teams had chances to "pull out" the victory, but they lacked a decisive shot.
As a result, AC Milan reached 47 points and maintained 2nd place in the league table. Roma climbed to 3rd place with 43 points - meaning the competition for top spots is intensifying.
