Pulgar Penalty Salvages Draw For Fiorentina Against Milan
Erick Pulgar scored a late spot-kick as Fiorentina, who had Dalbert sent off, came from behind to salvage a draw with Milan.
Erick Pulgar's late penalty salvaged a 1-1 Serie A draw for 10-man Fiorentina against Milan on Saturday.
Fiorentina were heading for defeat at Stadio Artemio Franchi, but Asmir Begovic – on in place of the injured Gianluigi Donnarumma – was unable to keep out a Pulgar spot-kick five minutes from time after Alessio Romagnoli was adjudged to have fouled former Patrick Cutrone.
Pulgar's penalty canceled out Ante Rebic's second-half opener, with the Croatian forward having netted his sixth goal in his last six Serie A appearances.
Matters looked even bleaker for Fiorentina when Dalbert was shown a red card for a foul on Zlatan Ibrahimovic, but ultimately it was Milan who were left hanging on, Dusan Vlahovic and Martin Caceres missing late chances to win it.
