AC Milan lose

A troubled Milan found it difficult to overcome a 2-0 deficit after Cassano and Pazzini found the back of the net at the 33rd and 52nd minute respectively.

Pato pulled one back at the 80th minute with a brilliant header from a Favalli cross. The strike helped lift the teams confidence and minutes later a Pirlo free kick was put in by Emerson but the equaliser was cancelled due to Emerson being offside.

The Rossoneri continued to attack but Sampdoria held grimmly and Milan now leave Genoa with no points.
