Milan (AFP) – A second-half screamer from Manuel Locatelli ended AC Milan’s long wait for victory over Juventus in a contentious 1-0 San Siro win that saw an apparently valid Miralem Pjanic opener chalked off for the visitors.
Milan, enduring a nine-game winless streak against the Turin giants, are now just two points behind the reigning champions and league leaders.
In a San Siro spectacular that saw drama, controversy and a candidate for one of the Serie A goals of the season, Vincenzo Montella’s men produced a battling performance to take their unbeaten run to six games.
Juventus, bidding for a record sixth consecutive scudetto, suffered only their second loss of the season and their second at the San Siro — having lost 2-1 to Inter last month.
