AC Milan missed the chance to go four points clear at the top of Serie A as they were held by Torino at the Stadio Olimpico Grande. Former Arsenal and Chelsea striker Olivier Giroud could not help his side as he cut a frustrated figure up front for the hosts. AC Milan remains top but failed to take full advantage of third-placed Napoli’s defeat earlier in the day
Their neighbors Inter Milan maintains the second place position, two points adrift with a game in hand after beating Hellas Verona on Saturday 2-0. The visitors mustered just two shots on target all night and struggled to find much rhythm without Zlatan Ibrahimovic upfront, with Sandro Tonali’s shot from inside the area 15 minutes from time their best opportunity.
Torino pose more threats in the game as they looked more likely to win. The point man Andrea Belotti went close to scoring twice if not for the vital interference of Fikayo Tomori making vital blocks to salvage a point for the Rossoneri.
