AS Roma and AC Milan played out a 1-1 draw in Sunday night’s big game at the Stadio Olimpico, in yet another tense encounter.
Koni De Winter scored the opening goal in the game with a header from a corner somewhat against the run of play. Not long after, Davide Bartesaghi was penalised for a handball inside the box, and Lorenzo Pellegrini scored the penalty, with the two sides forced to accept a 1-1 draw.
