AC Milan secured a hard-earned 1-0 victory over Roma, thanks to Mike Maignan’s late heroics. The French goalkeeper saved a Paulo Dybala penalty in the dying minutes of the game, preserving the win for the Rossoneri.

Strahinja Pavlovic scored the only goal of the game, capitalizing on a neat pass from Rafael Leao in the 39th minute. The goal was a result of Milan’s well-worked attack, which saw Leao race away from Evan Ndicka before setting up Pavlovic for the finish.

Roma had dominated the early stages of the game, with Ndicka and Dybala creating scoring opportunities. However, Milan’s defense held strong, and they were able to capitalize on their chances.

In the second half, Milan pushed for a second goal, with Leao and Youssouf Fofana creating scoring chances. However, Roma’s defense held firm, and they were awarded a penalty in the 80th minute.

Dybala stepped up to take the penalty, but Maignan was equal to the task. The French goalkeeper guessed correctly, diving low to his left to keep out the spot-kick and preserve the victory.

The win sees Milan leapfrog Roma to third place in Serie A, while Roma’s five-game winning streak on the road comes to an end.
