AC Milan ended the 2022 year with a thriller victory. AC Milan win the Serie A Week 15 against Fiorentina on Sunday 13 November 2022 at the San Siro Stadium in Milan, Italy. Milan win three precious points reaching 33 points so as not to lose further ground from Napoli with 41 points in the 1st position. Milan’s success comes in the 92nd minute thanks to an own goal by Milenkovic and an out-of-time exit from goalkeeper Terracciano. Fiorentina leaves San Siro with a bitter taste after an excellent performance and some uncapitalized goal chances in the second half. Fiorentina interrupts the streak of three consecutive victories and remains at 19.
In the next round, Milan will face Salernitana away while Fiorentina will play at home against Monza.
AC Milan opened the score with a fast goal in the 2nd minute. Forward Rafael Leão defeated Fiorentina goalkeeper Pietro Terracciano with a right-footed shot to the bottom right corner. The assist is by forward Olivier Giroud.

✅ Stats before the game. Milan won 1-0 in their last Serie A match against Fiorentina and could keep a clean sheet for two consecutive games against Viola in the competition for the first time since 2016 (2-0 under Mihajlovic and 0-0 with Montella ). Fiorentina have lost only one of the last 11 Serie A matches played against Milan in the first round (0-2 in 2020) – six wins complete the set for Viola (including last season’s 4-3, again at November) and four draws. Milan and Fiorentina have drawn only one of the last 14 Serie A matches at the Meazza (1-1 signed by de Jong and Ilicic in October 2014) – eight Rossoneri and five Viola wins complete the set. Fiorentina are unbeaten in three Serie A away games and could reach four in a row for the first time in the Vincenzo Italiano management – after the 2-0 over Sampdoria, Viola could keep a clean sheet in two consecutive away games for the first time from May 2021 in the league.
