Milan drew 1-1 at Udinese in the advance of the 17th matchday of Serie A. Ibra saves the Devil in extremis, who avoids the knockout but risks losing the top of the standings.
The Rossoneri lead the championship with 39 points, but Inter beating Cagliari in the postponement would rise to 40 points and Napoli – in case of success against Empoli – would engage the team coached by Pioli. Milan in Udine is saved from the end credits thanks to Ibrahimovic’s goal, who scored in the 92nd minute with a half overhead. The Swede responds to the advantage signed in the 17 ‘by Beto, who flies between the wide meshes of the host defense and, after Maignan’s first save, reaffirms on the net with the left tap-in. The Friulians saw Cioffi’s debut victory fade and they had to settle for the same by climbing to 17 points.
