The Rossoneri of Pioli thus fly to fifth place, while the Bianconeri of Sarri always remain first with 7 points ahead of Lazio.

Juve knows he has almost a match-ball after Lazio's second knockout in Lecce. Bianconeri di Sarri with Bernardeschi, Higuain and Cristiano Ronaldo in the trident. Szczesny returns to the goal, in defense there is Rugani in place of De Ligt. Milan without Calhanoglu, with Saelemaekers, Paquetà and Rebic behind Ibrahimovic. Play Paquetà.

As the minutes go by Milan shakes with Ibra who, twice in a few minutes, engages Szczesny forced to block on the ground. In the first half final, Sarri's team returns to push, with Higuain, opposed by Theo Hernandez, who concludes on goal, Donnarumma blocks (47 '). Blocked hamlet, rather poor in opportunities.

At the beginning of the second half Pioli sent Calhanoglu to the field instead of an evanescent Paquetà. But already at 47 'the advantage arrives Juve: a splendid gallop by Rabiot who in his half of the field steals the ball from Kessie and Bennacer, skips Theo Hernandez, flies to the edge of the area skips Romagnoli and then starts an extraordinary left at the intersection , Donnarumma beaten. AC Milan tries to react, but Juve doubles: Cuadrado's long throw that catches the Rossoneri defense unprepared, Romagnoli and Kjaer bucano, ball to Cristiano Ronaldo who is cold and still beats Donnarumma (53 '). It seems over. Inside Leao instead of Saelemaekers (60 ').

Dangerous action of the Rossoneri with Rebic of head, para the Juventus goalkeeper. But Massa, recalled by the Var, conceded the penalty to Milan for a touch of Bonucci's arm on the conclusion of Rebic himself (62 '). From the diskette Ibra is very cold and displaces Szczesny (62 '). The game reopens and the Rossoneri at the 66 'draw: Ibra draws in the Kessie area, the action of the Ivorian insisted that signs the 2-2. But it's not over and at 67 'AC Milan score the third goal in 5 minutes: Rebic imbecca Leao who flies, enters the area and beats Szczesny for the third time: 3-2. Many substitutions: in Milan out of Ibra for Bonaventura (67 '), in Juve three in one fell swoop (Matuidi, Douglas Costa and Ramsey instead of Rabiot, Higuain and Pjanic at 69'), then it is also up to Alex Sandro for Cuadrado ( 77 '). Occasions on one side (Rebic) and on the other (Rugani). Then in the final Pioli's Milan completes the comeback with the 4-2: Alex Sandro passes horizontally on the feet of Bonaventura who catches Rebic, the Croatian striker does not let himself be prayed and still beats Szczesny (80 '). Juve on the carpet, the Rossoneri in paradise at the end of a shooting with fireworks.
