WHAT HAPPENED?
The Rossoneri got off to a perfect start in their latest Serie A fixture, with Portuguese forward Rafael Leao breaking the deadlock in style with a sensational strike in the third minute. Milan were unable to build on that foundation, and were ultimately left cursing their luck.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
Teun Koopmeiners restored parity from the penalty spot at San Siro three minutes before half-time, and there was to be no more scoring from there. Both sides had chances to take all three points, but were left to settle for one apiece.
WHAT PULISIC SAID
United States international Pulisic was unable to make a telling contribution in the final third, before being replaced with two minutes left on the clock, and posted on social media afterwards that is “wasn’t to be tonight” as Milan took a share of the spoils.
