Key takeaways:
- All seven of Olivier Giroud's Serie A goals have been netted at the San Siro, the home stadium of both Milan squads.
- Olivier Giroud netted twice as AC Milan came from behind to defeat Inter Milan and move to within a point of their opponents at the top of Serie A.
AC Milan defeats their derby rivals:
Ivan Perisic side-footed a volley into the base corner from Hakan Calhanoglu's corner, and defending champs Inter looked in control.
But Giroud glid in a loose ball after deflecting Brahim Diaz's attempt.
The ex-Arsenal man, 35, then closed the victory with a clever turn and finished from Davide Calabria's pass.
In the last seconds, AC Milan had Theo Hernandez sent off for a lunging challenge on Denzel Dumfries.
The victory puts them within Inter, who still beat the table, and three points overhead third-placed Napoli.
AC Milan's last significant trophy was the 2010-11 Serie A title. Stefano Pioli has been their eighth boss since then.
