- We were not mentioned among the title candidates.

Now we are reaping the benefits of our work, which is not finished yet, says coach Stefano Pioli and highlights the Swede.

- Before the match, Zlatan said something beautiful: "If they want to remember us, we have three matches left to win."

Now we have two, says Pioli according to Reuters.

Milan are chasing their first Italian title in eleven years, but injured Zlatan Ibrahimovic has sporadically participated in the gold battle.

Against Verona, the striker was a substitute and came in with only six minutes left of the match without affecting the game very much.

It went well for Milan anyway and the three points away against Verona means that Ibrahimovic's team retains the upper hand before the decision.

Verona took the lead

The home team took the lead in the 38th minute, but Milan equalized in extra time in the first half.

Rafael Leao challenged the visitors' central defense eagerly, producing a good chance 10 minutes into the game as he went for a through ball.

There he found Sandro Tonali who in the crowd could push the ball into goal.

Just four minutes into the second half, the collaboration resurfaced.

Rafael Leao again tore up big holes in Verona's defense and played Tonali who from close range could hit the ball into the empty net.

Great success for midfielder Tonali, who turned 22 on Sunday and started the match in an unusually offensive role - which obviously suited him well.

In the final minutes, Alessandro Florenzi punctured the match with his 3-1 goal.

With two rounds left, Milan leads the Serie A table with two points ahead of Milan rival Inter.
