AC Milan and Sampdoria have gone into half time locked at 1-1 in their Serie A meeting this evening.
Despite coming into the encounter on the back of three league games without a win, it took the visitors just 10 minutes to edge ahead when Stephan El Shaarawy fired home from long range.
Diego Lopez was called into action to ensure that Milan's lead remained intact, as he pulled off a fine stop to deny Eder's effort.
Shortly after, Sergio Romero also had to be on guard to thwart Giacomo Bonaventura, whose well-struck shot was creeping into the net if not for the keeper's intervention.
The Rossoneri looked as though they were going to hold onto their lead heading into the interval, until Stefano Okaka got onto the end of Manolo Gabbiadini's cross to level up in the dying stages of the half.
