Pietro Comuzzo put the hosts ahead from a corner before Christopher Nkunku scored a powerful near-post finish to level. The match included a late stoppage scare when Marco Brescianini struck the bar, and Allegri left the touchline before the final whistle. The result prompted comments from manager Massimiliano Allegri about recurring mistakes and the need for better ball control near the penalty area.
