“Serie A Round 37: AC Milan Secures Champions League Spot with Win over Juventus”

Champions Napoli were held to a 2-2 draw in Bologna, dropping away points for the third time in a row despite leading 2-0 after Victor Osimhen’s goals. Lazio Roma beat relegated Cremona 3-2 to return to second place in the table. After conceding a goal, Verona played 1:1 with Empoli in the setup and will fight for salvation in the last round. Lecce saved themselves with a 1-0 win over Monza.

AC Milan needed to score at Juventus in the round of 37 to secure their place in the Champions League. The “Rossoneri” defeated the “Old Lady” for the second time in the season, which they managed only for the third time in the last 50 years. It was decided by the Frenchman Giroud’s goal, who headed in through the center of Calabria at the end of the first half.

The home team could equalize at the very end, but Danilo’s attempt after a corner kick was blocked by the visiting players in the small area. After deducting 10 points for financial machinations, Juventus is in 7th place, from which it is already guaranteed promotion to the European Conference League. In sixth position, they guarantee the group stage of the Europa League, where AS Roma is, losing one point.

Bologna confirmed their home form against the favorites and, just like in the last matches with AC Milan, Juventus and AS Rome, they also drew with this year’s champions. The guests were put in the lead after a big mistake by the goalkeeper Osimhen, the top scorer of the league then added his 25th goal of the year after switching sides.

Bologna managed to avoid defeat. First, Ferguson came through from the penalty spot and equalized with De Silvestri’s header in the 84th minute.

In the last home match, Lazio said goodbye to club legend Stefano Radu, who symbolically started the last minutes of the winning match. The Romanian defender played 16 seasons for Lazio, after this year he decided to end his playing career. The home team had a successful first half, after which they led 2:0, but Cremona managed to equalize within four minutes. After Galdames’ goal, Lazzari scored a curious own goal with his head. In the 89th minute, Milinkovič-Savič gave the home side the win with a header.

Lecce ended Monza’s eight-match unbeaten run as AC Milan regular Colombo sealed a rescue for last year’s Serie B champions in the top flight with an 11th-minute penalty goal. Monza also kicked a penalty late in the match, but Gytkjaer’s effort was saved by Falcone.

Verona took the lead after an hour when substitute Gaich slotted home from the spot. However, she did not achieve an important win, because in the sixth minute of regulation, the visitors equalized thanks to Stojanovič’s spot-kick.

Verona, who have won just one of their last five matches, will be looking to save until the last round. In it, he will present himself on the pitch of AC Milan. At the same time, they have to hope for the help of AS Roma, who will face the seventeenth-ranked Spezia.
