KIFI

MILAN (AP) — Olivier Giroud again showed why he can never be written off by scoring two late goals as AC Milan rallied to beat city rival Inter Milan 2-1 and re-ignite the Serie A title race. Milan moved one point behind defending champion and leader Inter, which has played one game less. Midfielder Ivan Perisic put Inter ahead when he volleyed in following a 39th-minute corner. Giroud equalized in the 75th. Four minutes later he curled the ball under goalkeeper Samir Handanovic following a great spin past a defender. Roma was held 0-0 at home by struggling Genoa. Lazio moved into sixth on goal difference by winning 3-0 at Fiorentina.
