Hello and welcome to our live coverage of the Serie A match between Genoa and Milan at Stadio Luigi Ferraris. Milan are aiming to move to within two points of second-placed Napoli, Genoa start the day five clear of relegation.

HALF-TIME Pazzini's goal has Milan in front - but he's gone off injured.

Something of a low-key end to the half here. Milan have done just enough judging by the scoreline, but they don't really deserve the lead.

We will have two added minutes.

It hasn't been the most convincing performance you will ever seen from Milan, who could have given away at least two penalties.

Niang needs attention as he comes over to the touchline - he appears to be bleeding from the nose.

Muntari controls with his thigh in his own box and Bertolacci catches him with a terrible lunge. I cannot believe that has not warranted a yellow card.

Another shout for a penalty! Daniel Tozser whips the ball in and Niang clearly pushes Granqvist in the back before Borriello spoons the shot over the bar. That also looked a decent shout.

Niang muscles Antonelli off the ball but is penalised, giving away a free-kick to Genoa...

Vargas has a shot blocked for Genoa, who could arguably have had three penalties so far. One was a dead cert, the other too more debatable.

GENOA WANT A PENALTY! Bovo chips a free-kick to the back post and a header comes back across goal from Borriello, striking Niang's arm. It was close range but why has he got his hands up in the air? Looked a pen to me.

Now Constant is in the book for Milan - the third player to be cautioned - as he trips Bovo in full flight. It looked like he got a nick on the ball.

Balotelli now appears to have a sore shin following a challenge, and Robinho is warming up! Surely they won't have to make another sub.

A big cheer from all corners of the ground can only mean one thing: the referee fell over!

Genoa howl for a penalty when the ball strikes Zapata on the arm but it looked unintentional and the referee agrees.

And inside 20 seconds Balotelli is booked for a silly push on Bertolacci from behind. Madness.

Here is the change and Pazzini comes off to be replaced by Balotelli. He certainly left his mark on the game though.

Lucky Milan didn't take him off! Balotelli is warming up though and they may still make the chance.

GOAL! Genoa 0-1 Milan! He might be hobbling around on one leg but Pazzini puts Milan in front with a thunderous finish. Portanova produces a poor clearance from inside the box and Pazzini hammers a right-footed effort in off the underside of the bar.

Now Niang looks lively again as his cross from the right is cleared by Portanova. Now Pazzini hobbles back onto the pitch. He doesn't look too smart.

MILAN GO CLOSE! Niang with a thunderous shot but Frey gets his fingers to the ball and makes the save.

Pazzini needs the magic spray as he receives treatment. His leg appeared to jar and he looks in some pain.
