AC Milan staged a remarkable comeback to defeat Parma 3-2 in a thrilling Serie A encounter at San Siro on Sunday, January 26, 2025. The Rossoneri turned the game around with two stoppage-time goals to claim all three points.
Match Highlights
Parma opened the scoring in the 24th minute with Matteo Cancellieri finding the net. Milan equalized just before halftime when Christian Pulisic successfully converted a penalty after a foul on Strahinja Pavlovic by Parma’s goalkeeper Zion Suzuki during a corner. In the second half, Enrico Del Prato restored Parma's lead in the 80th minute, but Milan’s late rally saw Tijjani Reijnders level the score before Samuel Chukwueze’s decisive strike sealed victory.
League Implications
The victory moves AC Milan to sixth place in the Serie A standings, with a total of 34 points, while Parma remains in 17th, dangerously close to the relegation zone, on 20 points.
On-Field Tensions
After the final whistle, a heated exchange occurred between Milan’s head coach Sergio Conceição and team captain Davide Calabria. While initial reports linked the incident to Calabria’s attendance at a concert before the match, Conceição clarified that the disagreement was related to tactical matters during the game. Both parties have since reconciled.
New Addition Observes from the Stands
Kyle Walker, who recently joined Milan on loan from Manchester City, watched the match from the stands. The England international is expected to make his debut in February and is likely to compete with Calabria for the starting right-back position.
This dramatic win highlights Milan's fighting spirit as they look to climb further up the Serie A table.
