Lazio remain in third place despite their 2-1 defeat at San Siro, but there was controversy as Patrick Cutrone appeared to score with his arm.
It has been a weekend of bizarre and contentious refereeing decisions and this was no different, as despite the use of VAR, the officials did not spot Cutrone scoring the opening goal with his arm.
Adam Marusic had equalised within five minutes by springing the offside trap on a Lucas Leiva defence-splitting pass, but Jack Bonaventura’s header on the stroke of half-time proved decisive.
