Tammy Abraham struck late to earn a 2-1 huge victory over Red Star Belgrade in the Champions League to keep their hope in a top eight finish alive.
The Rossoneri have now won four consecutive games in the competition and are only one point outside the automatic qualifying places with two more games.
Red Star almost surprised the San Siro in silence in the 17th minute when the volley of Andrija Maksimovic hit the bar with well -beaten Mike Maignan.
But Milan was in front of the break before the break when Rafael Leao was excellent the pass of Youssouf Fofana before he finished in the upper corner.
Red Star replacement Nemanja Radonjic, however, recovered parity in the second half, with the Serbia internationally attempted at the grip of Maignan Roding.
With the game to finish the entire square, Abraham sealed a dramatic victory up close after Ivan Gutesa had tipped the header of Francesco Camarda on the bar.
A late, late winner and we all take 3 points! #Acmfkcz #ucl #sempremilan pic.twister.com/lrxkkojyds

Debrief data: Milan is starting to catch fire
After a difficult start of his term of office in Milan, Paulo Fonseca finally stamped his authority by his side, with the results that are now starting to come for the Serie A -side.
Milan's last triumph saw them win four consecutive Champions League matches for the first time since a series of five victories between February and April 2005.
And so often their Talisman, Leao, Milan sent on their way to victory. He has now scored for the first time in successive performances in the competition.
But his goal was brilliantly set up by Fofana, whose two Champions League assists both went to the Portugal International. The Milan midfielder has four assists in his last seven games in all matches, just as much as he had in his previous 52 games for Milan and Monaco.
