Spezia pulled off one of the biggest upsets of this year’s Serie A after beating Milan 2-1 in an incredible upset that ended in the sixth minute of delay, denying the Rossoneri an opportunity to climb to the top.
Spezia dropped a megaton bomb in the 22nd game of Serie A. The team of Dimitris Nikolaou and Daniele Verde found themselves in the delays of the first part through Rafael Leao’s goal behind the goal, but in the second they caused an epic upset in Milan, with Kevin Agoudelos equalizing 1-1 in the 64th minute. Minute and Emanuel Giasi, who gave the guests the three in the sixth minute of delay.
The game had a crazy development and in the last minutes of the first part “it caught fire” with the hosts. In the 45th minute Hernandez missed a penalty but at 45+1 Leao put the hosts ahead with a deep ball and beat Proventel by a place.
In the second half, however, Spezia caused an unimaginable upset that fans of the championship will long remember. In the 64th minute, former AEK midfielder Daniele Verde came out from the left and made the parallel turn, throwing Agoudelos at the height of the small space and Menian executing to make it 1-1.
This goal even led to a shocking development of the game, Milan pushed in the final and found the golden goal with Messiah at 90+2, but the referee didn’t count it after seconds before giving a foul in Milan’s favor in an illegal mark on Rebic , without missing the advantage, as he very well could.
Spezia’s goalkeeper Proventel then stopped Zlatan Ibrahimovic twice with impressive interventions (first a direct foul from the Swede and then a header from a corner) to complete the visitors’ triumph in the 90th minute.+6′.
When Kovalenko found Giasi with a diagonal ball and the latter sent the ball into the right corner of Menian’s herd with a cool spot to give the newcomer’s attempt to stay three points gold (he’s now at +6 from the relegation line) and keeps Milan at -2 from champions Inter and with more games against his compatriot.
