MILAN (AP) — Roma and AC Milan scored in added time to draw to a 1-1 draw in Serie A on Saturday, a result that went neither to favor in the close fight for a Champions League spot. .

Tammy Abraham thought she had scored Roma’s winning goal by scoring in the fourth minute of added time, the first shot on target of the game.

But Alexis Saelemaekers equalized three minutes later and left Abraham shaking his head in bewilderment.

Milan, which is fourth, was ahead of Roma on goal difference. Head-to-head is the first tie-breaker, but the sides are level after two late Roma goals to draw Milan 2-2 in January. They are also level on goal difference.

But Roma have eight fewer goals in total.

Inter Milan can tie on points with a win on Sunday against second-place Lazio. But Lazio need the win to prevent Napoli from becoming champions with a win later against Salernitana. This duel was postponed from Saturday for security reasons.

Later, Atlanta, which is seventh, could close the gap to two units with the first four places, with a victory against Torino.

Roma striker Paulo Dybala was only prepared to sit on the Olympic Stadium bench after injuring his ankle last week in a loss to Atlanta. Roma miss him because the team failed to create chances.
