AC Milan keep the 2nd position after winning the Serie A Week 30 game against Fiorentina on Saturday 30 March 2024 at the Artemio Franchi Stadium in Florence, Italy. Duncan responds to Loftus-Cheek, Rafael Leao scores the fourth consecutive championship victory. Fun match, played openly, many opportunities for Pioli’s team in the first half, reaction from the Viola in the second half with Belotti and Mandragora neutralized by Maignan. A Pulisic goal disallowed for offside.
The Ferraris match between Genoa and Frosinone ends in a 1-1 draw. After an entertaining and balanced first half, with the home team breaking the deadlock around the half-hour mark with a penalty kick awarded and converted by Gudmundsson, the guests equalized a few minutes later with Reinier, after which they closed the first half of the game was growing, in the second half there were fewer scoring opportunities compared to the first part of the match, with Genoa losing Retegui and substitute Malinovskyi due to injury. In full injury time, following a quick VAR review, the referee rightly removed a penalty kick that had been wrongly awarded to Frosinone previously. The final draw is all in all fair.
