Thus, Milan avoided losing to Verona at the San Siro for the first time.
The Swede had finished with a heavy shot that goalkeeper Marco Silvestri saved to the side.
The ball was then played back to right wing Brahim Diaz and Zlatan nodded it in 2-2 with fine precision.
A couple of minutes earlier, Ibrahimovic had won an air duel and most thought that Davide Calabria had made it 2-2, but after a VAR review, the referee rejected the goal due to the ball rolling on the Swede's arm, something that was discussed afterwards.
A quarter from the end, Zlatan nodded in the crossbar.
Third penalty miss in a short time
With 66 minutes played, Ibrahimovic had a fantastic opportunity to reply but his shot flew harmlessly into the side-netting of the goal.
It was his third penalty miss in a short time.
Before the match, Ibrahimovic received the award as Serie A's best player in October.
Until Thursday, Milan was undefeated in 24 competitive matches.
The most recent loss was as far back in time as in March.
But on Thursday, the suite against Lille at home in the Europa League burst, 0-3.
Thanks to Zlatan's header, there were not two losses in a row.
Despite the draw, Milan retain the lead in the table, two points ahead of Sassuolo, as Serie A now take a national team break for two weeks
