Serie A: Dan Ndoye's Winner Helps Bologna Beat Milan

AC Milan squandered a first-half advantage in a 2-1 loss at Bologna in a rescheduled Serie A match Thursday and fell further into crisis. The defeat follows elimination from the Champions League and a loss to Torino last weekend. Milan dropped to𒁏 eighth place while Bologna moved up to sixth. After Rafael Leao’s opener for Milan, Santiago Castro equalized after the break follo🌟wing a free kick that bounced around inside the area. Then Dan Ndoye took advantage of poor defending to score the winner eight minutes from time by redirecting in a cross.
