MILAN - Franck Kessié scored a penalty with the last kick of the match to rescue a 1-1 draw for title-chasing AC Milan against Udinese in Serie A. Rodrigo Becão looked to have secured Udinese’s first win at Milan in nearly five years before a needless handball from Jens Stryger Larsen. It was Milan’s first match without injured forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic and the Rossoneri remained second in the standings. They are three points behind Inter Milan ahead of the Nerazzurri's trip to Parma. There were two late penalties and Sassuolo also hit the woodwork twice in an extraordinary 3-3 draw against Napoli. Atalanta humiliated bottom club Crotone 5-1. Roma won 2-1 at Fiorentina.
