MILAN (Reuters) – Alvaro Morata and Noah Okafor scored in the final minutes for AC Milan to claim a 2-2 draw at home against Torino in their Serie A opener on Saturday.

The visitors took the lead on the half-hour mark when Raoul Bellanova’s header hit the post and Malick Thiaw’s attempted clearance ended in an own goal.

Torino doubled their lead in the 68th minute with Duvan Zapata heading in Valentino Lazaro’s cross from close range.

A minute before stoppage time Morata gave the home fans hope by deflecting Tijjani Reijnders’ long-range shot into the net.

Milan then launched a frantic final push and Noah Okafor smashed in a volley deep into stoppage time to rescue a point for the home side.
