"Despite scoring at San Siro, Lorenzo Colombo refused to celebrate against AC Milan last night, and the reasoning is quite obvious. When Colombo prodded Genoa into the lead, it only deepened the feeling that Milan were against it, once again, against a team in the bottom half. It has been a theme for the season, and the Rossoneri cannot shrug it."
"Whilst their performances against the top sides have been brilliant, they have routinely dropped points against the lower sides in the division. So, the benefits of playing well against their fellow title rivals are minimal, perhaps even nonexistent. Of course, the Diavolo did eventually get there in the end, as Rafael Leao scored late on to avoid complete embarrassment. However, even that nearly meant nothing due to a late penalty."
Lorenzo Colombo scored for Genoa at San Siro but refused to celebrate against AC Milan because of his personal ties to the club. Genoa's lead amplified perceptions that Milan struggle against bottom-half teams, reflecting a season-long pattern of dropped points versus weaker opponents. Milan have produced strong displays against top sides while failing to secure results against lower-ranked teams. Rafael Leao scored late to salvage a draw and avoid complete embarrassment, although a late penalty nearly changed the outcome. Colombo described the draw as important, praised the performance, and reiterated he would not celebrate at San Siro.
