AC Milan and Roma ended their match at San Siro with a 1-1 draw. Paulo Dybala equalised after Tijjani Reijnders had given Milan the lead. Alexis Saelemaekers nearly scored early for Milan, hitting the post. Reijnders then scored in the 16th minute with a powerful shot that left Mile Svilar helpless. Just seven minutes later, Dybala volleyed home after Artem Dovbyk set him up.

Both teams sought a decisive goal in the second half. Samuel Chukwueze's curling shot from 20 yards was saved by Svilar. Meanwhile, Mike Maignan managed to tip Eldor Shomurodov's header onto the crossbar, keeping the score level. Despite these efforts, neither side could find a winner, and the match concluded without further goals.

The game marked another draw between these two sides, making it their third stalemate in five Serie A encounters. Roma's struggles away from home continued as they extended their winless run on the road to 16 matches across all competitions. Their last longer streak was during the 1998-99 season when they went 17 games without an away win.

Dybala has been particularly effective against AC Milan throughout his career. He has now been involved in 13 Serie A goals against them, scoring eight times and providing five assists. His performance once again proved crucial for Roma as they managed to secure a point despite their ongoing challenges away from home.

This result highlights both teams' current form and challenges in Serie A. While AC Milan showed moments of brilliance, Roma's resilience ensured they left with a share of the points. The match was a testament to both teams' determination and skill on the field.
