Serie A no longer has asterisks in the standings, after Bologna beat Milan 2-1 in the recovery of the ninth day. A match that should have been played at the end of October, postponed (not without controversy) due to bad weather.

At Dall'Ara, the rossoblù are the ones making the game in the first half, but at the end of the half, the guests take the lead: Maignan's relaunch, Giménez's pass, Rafael Leão beats De Silvestri and scores after skipping past Skorupski . It's the 43rd minute, with the score at 0-1, we go to half-time. Bologna emerges from the interval with great energy, and in the 48th minute they equalise with a melee in the area resolved by Castro . It takes a couple of minutes to validate the goal, with the VAR check for a rebound on Fabbian's arm (who serves the assist) which is deemed not punishable amidst protests from the Rossoneri. In the 82nd minute, shortly after Casale heads the ball into the post from a corner, Bologna finds the winning goal: following a throw-in, Cambiaghi crosses from the left into the centre and Ndoye corrects it into the net . Milan's defence is completely immobile.

With this success, Bologna rises to 44 points, overtaking Fiorentina who are stuck at 42 and climbing to sixth place, -3 from fifth-placed Lazio and -5 from the Champions League zone occupied by Juventus. The crisis continues for Milan: they remain at 41 points, in eighth place. The Felsinei will host Cagliari on Sunday at 3:00 pm: Vincenzo Italiano has given the team a day off, which will train only on the eve of the match .
