"AC Milan surrendered top spot to their city rivals Inter on Sunday after drawing 2-2 at home against Sassuolo in the early kick-off. The visitors took the lead through a nicely worked goal by Ismael Kone, but Davide Bartesaghi scored just before and just after half-time - his first two goals for the club - to put Milan 2-1 ahead. A third goal from Christian Pulisic was controversially chalked off, before Armand Lauriente netted off the bench to earn Sassuolo a share of the points at San Siro."

La Gazzetta dello Sport: "Little devil. Milan and the nightmare of newly-promoted teams. Thank goodness for Bartesaghi." Corriere dello Sport: "Laurienté freezes Allegri, Sassuolo comeback (2-2)." QS: "Bartesaghi, a dream brace. But for Allegri, it's a bittersweet draw.""
"Tuttosport: "Milan stumble against Sassuolo. The newly promoted teams are hard to stomach for the Rossoneri, who aren't satisfied with Bartesaghi's brace: a heart-pounding 2-2 draw at San Siro after the draw against Pisa and the defeat against Cremonese.""
