Chievo's woes were compounded by a red card for Dario Dainelli as they ended the day nine points above the drop zone.Thereau then tested Abbiati with a shot which lacked the pace to cause the Milan goalkeeper any problems.The rain, which never stopped falling throughout the 90 minutes, had already started to form puddles when the teams took to the field at the Stadio Marc'Antonio Bentegodi.Mario Balotelli's free-kick was only parried by Christian Puggioni and Montolivo pounced on the loose ball to put the visitors in front.The stage was set for a scrap and Milan rose to the challenge to keep their slender title hopes alive.Another free-kick from Balotelli was spilled by Puggioni, who this time recovered the ball at the second time of asking.The first chance fell to Chievo in the 15th minute when Cyril Thereau's cross was diverted towards his own goal by Philippe Mexes, but Christian Abbiati was able to keep the ball out with Daniele Bonera clearing his lines.
