AC Milan and Lazio played to a 2-2 draw at the Stadio Olimpico on Saturday. The hosts initially established a two-goal lead in the first half behind strikes from Matteo Cancellieri and Tijjani Noslin. AC Milan manager Ruben Amorim made three substitutions at the break, introducing Diego Moreira and Christian Pulisic to the lineup.

Despite the late momentum, neither team found a deciding goal before the final whistle. The result moves Lazio to the top of the Serie A table, while AC Milan sits in fourth place with eight points.
