AC Milan was actually able to take the lead through Rafael Leao’s cukil kick in the 45+1 minute.
But, Spezia was willing to equalize Kevin Agudelo’s late score (64 ‘) and ensure Emmanuel Gyasi’s late goal victory in time injury time 90+6 minutes.
In fact, before Gyasi scored the winning goal, the Rossoneri had scored through Junior Messias’s flick.

Before Messias controlled the ball, Ante Rebic, who tried to break through the penalty box, was brought down by Spezia’s players. Then, the ball fell at the feet of the Messiah and was nestled into the opponent’s goal.
However, referee Marco Serra made a mistake by blowing the whistle instead and not allowing the game to continue, even though the ball was still in the hands of AC Milan players.
Suddenly, the AC Milan players protested and surrounded Serra.
According to reports The Gazzetta dello Sport, AIA as the highest association of referees in Italy apologized for the mistakes made by Marco Serra.
