A FRUSTRATING NIGHT FOR MILAN...
22:00
NOBODY WANTS TO PLAY IN THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE
What an incredible matchday 26. So many shock results!
End of 2nd Half
21:49
FULL-TIME: MILAN 1-1 SALERNITANA
Game over, and ANOTHER big team drops points! What an absurd weekend. All of the teams between 2nd and 6th - Inter, Lazio, Milan, Roma and Atalanta - dropped points this weekend.
Giroud put the Rossoneri in front here, but Dia equalised in the second half and Salernitana were worthy of their point, even if goalkeeper Ochoa had to make some big saves late on. They are now seven points clear of the drop zone.
98'
PIATEK SQUANDERS COUNTER
Salernitana win it on the edge of their box and launch a counter, now it's suddenly three on two! But Piatek gets it horribly wrong and plays a pass directly out for a throw-in...
96'
SALERNITANA SURVIVE
Milan chuck the ball into the mixer and it bobs around a bit of a few heads, but Ochoa eventually gathers. It's very nearly time up.
95'
FIIIIIIIIIGHT!
Now all hell is breaking loose down in front of the Milan technical area. Not entirely sure what has happened, but Hernandez is on the ground.
93'
MILAN PUSHING
Milan are throwing numbers forward in search of a late winner, but Salernitana continue to hold strong. Tomori is looking his cool a bit as he gets booked.

IBRAHIMOVIC DENIED!
Ibrahimovic is almost the hero as he fires a low shot towards the bottom corner, but Ochoa is there again! The goalkeeper gets his right glove on it as he dives to the right.

SIX ADDED MINUTES
We're into stoppage time...will we get late drama here? Wouldn't rule it out...

HOW HAS THAT STAYED OUT?!
Ochoa is the hero again for Salernitana, as he somehow keeps a Florenzi header out on the line. The ref checks his watch to make sure, but the Mexican did a fantastic job!

TONALI ON FOR BENNACER
Can the dynamic midfielder make a difference late on?

PIATEK STINGS MAIGNAN'S PALMS!
Now that would be a story. The former Milan striker has space and time at the edge of the box and fires a powerful low shot at goal, but Maignan gets down to his left quickly to beat it away!
78'
CDK OFF TARGET
Florenzi immediately gets involved and curls in a cross to De Ketelaere, who glances a header towards the back post, but there's nobody there to meet it.

OCHOA WITH A BIG SAVE!
A high, hanging cross from the right finds Ibrahimovic, who flicks it on with his head to Origi at the back post. The striker is being closely guarded and can only chest it towards goal, and Ochoa dives to his right to flick it away with his right hand!
76'
FINAL 15 MINUTES
Well. Where do Milan go from here? They have 15 minutes to avoid the same fate as all their top-four rivals by dropping points in a game they're big favourites in.
