And so it proves as the referee draws this one to a conclusion.
90+4
Desperate, desperate defence from Milan: Abbiati twice flaps at crosses but he manages to clear his lines and that is probably the last chance of the match.
90+2
Four minutes of added time here for Roma to salvage something from this one.
90'
Cassetti marauds down the right before cutting inside and swinging in a cross but it is too deep.
89'
This is shaping up to be a tense finale but Milan are doing well to keep the ball.
87'
Abbiati does well to get down low to Lamela's strike but he can only push it into the path of Bojan, who makes no mistake from close range.
87'
And Roma go up the other end to cut the arrears through Bojan. 3-2.
86'
Nocerino with a contender for miss of the season. Cassano breaks the offside trap again and slides the ball in along the face of the goal but the midfielder somehow manages to fire over from almost beneath the crossbar - albeit at an angle.
84'
Osvaldo draws a save from Abbiati down to his right. Corner. Bojan rises at the far post but he is beaten to it.
82'
Cassano has really changed the game here. Roma can't deal with his direct running.
80'
Milan really stretching the play now as they close out what will almost certainly be their fourth win in a row in Serie A.
78'
GOOOOAL!! Cassano does well to win a corner, which is played short. The ball eventually is worked to Aquilani who clips the ball to Ibrahimovic who dispatches another header past Stekelenburg to make in 3-1.
77'
Emanuelson springs the offside trap before feeding Cassano. The livewire forward shows an incredible sleight of foot before lashing wide.
76'
Great effort from Aquilani. He drives at the Roma defence before striking from just outside the box. Always rising but worth an effort.
75'
Ibra flashes an effort wide from just outside the box. Roma are having the better of it but Milan have an array of attacking talent that could strike at any moment.
73'
Robinho makes way for Cassano.
71'
Osvaldo is denied from point blank range for the home side. Incredible stop. A corner landed at the forward and he prodded it towards goal but Abbiati managed to push it over. Literally from four yards out.
69'
Heinze is on for Juan for the home side.
68'
Prince has had to leave the field of play and is replaced by Emanuelson. I think he was carded on his way off.
66'
Aquilani follows up Robinho's blocked effort but his placed shot from outside the box is easily claimed by Stekelenburg.
