Daniel Maldini scores in Spezia defeat to parent club AC Milan

Daniel Maldini, son of Italy legend Paolo, scored for Spezia against his parent club AC Milan - as Serie A leaders Napoli won again.

Maldini, 21, is on loan at Spezia from AC Milan and equalised after Theo Hernandez had given the hosts the lead.

Former Arsenal and Chelsea forward Olivier Giroud hit an 89th-minute volley as Milan won 2-1 in the San Siro to remain six points behind Napoli.

Giroud was sent off for a second yellow card for his celebration after scoring.

Paolo Maldini holds the record for Serie A appearances for AC Milan (647).

In September 2021 against Spezia, Daniel Maldini became the third generation of his family to score for AC Milan.
