MILAN (AP) — A third generation of the Maldini family has scored in Serie A as Daniel Maldini helped AC Milan to a 2-1 win at Spezia. Daniel Maldini scored his first Serie A goal 13 years and 179 days after the last league goal netted by his father Paolo and 60 years and 22 days after his grandfather Cesare last scored. Daniele Verde leveled for Spezia 10 minutes from time but substitute Brahim Díaz restored Milan’s lead. Milan moved top of the league. It is a point ahead of Napoli. Defending champion Inter Milan is two points behind its city rival after it was held to a 2-2 draw by Atalanta in a highly entertaining match that saw 43 shots on goal and a late penalty miss by the Nerazzurri.
