Como 1-2 AC Milan: Latest Rossoneri recovery gives Conceicao first league win
Sergio Conceicao celebrated another comeback win, this his first in Serie A as AC Milan boss as they defeated Como.
AC Milan came from a goal down to win 2-1 at Como in Serie A on Tuesday after quickfire second-half goals from Theo Hernandez and Rafael Leao.
Como shocked Milan on the hour when new signing Assane Diao's low shot beat Mike Maignan inside his near post.
But Hernandez levelled for Milan in the 71st minute with a volley from close range, before Leao put the visitors in front five minutes later.
The winger raced through and dinked a fine finish over Como goalkeeper Jean Butez to snatch all three points.
It is new coach Sergio Conceicao's first league victory as Milan boss, building on the side's recent success in the Supercoppa Italiana as they look to climb the table.
Data debrief: Conceicao's comeback kings
This was the seventh time Milan have conceded first in Serie A this season, and they had not won any of the previous six, drawing two and losing four.
But Conceicao has already made the Rossoneri kings of the comeback since taking over, sensationally overturning deficits against both Juventus and Inter to win the Supercoppa Italiana.
That same spirit was on show again here as Milan scored with their final two shots and then held out under late pressure.
