July 7, 2020, was a day to remember for AC Milan as they pulled off an incredible comeback against Juventus. The Italian giants scored three goals in a span of just five minutes to turn the game around and secure a 4-2 win over their visitors.
Despite being two goals down at halftime, thanks to Adrien Rabiot's solo effort and Cristiano Ronaldo's 26th league goal of the season, AC Milan refused to give up. Zlatan Ibrahimovic pulled one back with a penalty in the 62nd minute, and the momentum shifted in their favor.
Four minutes later, Franck Kessie equalized, and Rafael Leao put AC Milan ahead just a minute after that. Ante Rebic sealed the win with a goal in the 80th minute, leaving Juventus stunned.
The defeat marked the first time Juventus had dropped points since the season restarted last month, but they still maintained a seven-point lead at the top of the Serie A table with seven matches remaining. AC Milan, on the other hand, climbed to fifth place with 49 points, still 14 points adrift of the top four.
