Europa League: Lille 1-1 AC Milan

Lille have moved to the top of Group H after holding off a fight-back by Serie A leaders AC Milan to settle for a 1-all draw at home. The game also began with ‘a minute of silence’ in memory of legendary Maradona.

After a stalemate first half, the guests opened the deadlock in the 46th minute, via Samu Castillejo who tapped the ball in after a great solo run.

But, the French outfit needed less than 20 minutes to settle the score thanks to Jonathan Bamba after lashing the ball into the bottom right corner.

Lille are now at the top of Group H, after bagging eight points out of four matches, with AC Milan on their tail, just a single point behind.

Milan will host Celtic next week, while Lille play host to Sparta Prague.
