The breakthrough came early in the second half, thanks to Rafael Leão, who finished off a stunning team play.
This goal marked a significant milestone for the Portuguese forward, as he has now surpassed 100 contributions in Serie A (60 goals and 41 assists).
In a tense conclusion, the match almost took a turn when VAR was called into play during injury time.
The referee ultimately decided against awarding a penalty to Lazio amidst the confusion, leading to Massimiliano Allegri’s dismissal from the sidelines. Nonetheless, Milan secured the three points.
With this victory, Adrien Rabiot and his teammates now sit atop the Serie A table with 28 points.
