Chaotic Milan grab a crazy stoppage-time comeback win against Parma

Reading Time: 2min | Sun. 26.01.25. | 17:38

Samuel Chukwueze and Tijjani Reijnders netted after the 90th minute to turn it from 1-2 to 3-2 and trigger ecstatic celebration

The Rossoneri are quite an entertainers, that's for sure! After trailing twice to Parma on Sunday afternoon, Sergio Conceicao's man managed to turn things around in the stoppage time and snatch an important 3-2 victory.

Tijjani Reijnders and Samuel Chukwueze found the back of the net in the span of just three minutes to save their side from what could have been an excruciating defeat. A chaotic game saw Parma getting in front around the 25th-minute mark, before Christian Pulisic equalized from the spot after Strahinja Pavlovic was fouled in the box.

The Serbian versatile defender - who was on the verge of San Siro exit just a few days ago before rejecting Fenerbahce's offer - boosted his team with a fighting spirit and appeared in the attack to resurrect the Rossoneri.

After conceding again in the second half, Milan were with their backs to the wall, but Pavlovic pushed them to a late heroic rescue. First, his equalizer was voided due to a narrow offside, but a couple of minutes later, Reijnders kickstarted a lovely three-piece action, which ended in his routine finishing, to make it 2-2.

But that was just a prelude to madness that was about to happen, as Pavlovic headed it to Chukwueze in the 90+5 for a clumsy yet efficient effort which ended in the back of the net for an ecstatic celebration.

Still, Milan is so hectic that we saw a fierce and vocal confrontation between the team's captain Davide Calabria and the boss Conceicao at full-time.
