AC Milan's Europa League hopes are under threat after they could only manage a 1-1 draw at lowly Crotone.

The visitors trailed as early as the ninth minute to Marcello Trotta's strike but Gabriel Paletta pulled the Rossoneri level five minutes into the second half.

However, any hopes of snatching a late winner were ended with Juraj Kucka's dismissal and they could be caught in the table by city rivals Inter, who face Napoli on Sunday evening.

Crotone remain in the bottom three but are now just four points from safety.
