We're going to have an extension to the added time following the late drama, as Benevento try to hold onto the ball deep in the Milan half.
90' +4
V. Parigini gets yellow.
F. Kessié gets yellow.
Kessie gets a booking after some handbags on the near side. It's starting to boil over, with Milan losing their heads.
Parigini also earns a yellow card following that clash.
90' +3
Milan in the final third this season have been terrible, even against the worst defence in Serie A this season. I can only recall Puggioni having to make one save all game.
90' +1
SIX minutes of added time!
90'
Benevento have conceded a monstrous 78 goals this season, keeping just three clean sheets. Make no mistake, this is a massive upset.
88'
The ten-men of Benevento have their backs against the wall but they should be home and dry, as Milan continue to waste decent opportunities going forward.
86'
Benevento are having to cope with a lot of pressure in the final moments, as Milan throw everything forward in an attempt to salvage something from the game.
84'
Heading into the closing stages at the San Siro in what has been a dreadful night for AC Milan. They've been extremely poor and Benevento deserve their lead.
82'
M. Locatelli gets yellow.
I'm a fan of VAR and have defended it valiantly this season but I have no idea why that decision didn't go to the video assistant. It could be a game changing moment and it could cost Benevento a historic win.
Locatelli picks up Milan's first booking off the evening, as he pulls Djuricic to ground in midfield.
80'
C. Diabaté gets a second yellow card and is sent off.
RED CARD! Diabate, Benevento's top-scorer this season and a substitute this evening, picks up his second yellow card and his marching orders. He rises in the air with Bonucci to fight for the ball and it's a very harsh call against the striker, as there was very little in that.
Minute
Description
79'
Milan starting to turn the screw in the final third as they seek to turn this game around, whilst Benevento frantically try to defend their advantage. If they do concede an equaliser and fail to win, their relegation will be confirmed this evening.
77'
V. Parigini enters the game and replaces N. Viola.
Third and final change from Benevento, as Viola is replaced by Parigini.
74'
C. Diabaté gets yellow.
WHAT A SAVE! Suso curls a superb cross into the box where Cutrone is lurking, forcing a brilliant save from Puggioni. Sagna then blocks another effort superbly, before Kalinic concedes a foul.
Diabate picks up the second booking of the evening, as Benevento look to hold onto their lead.
72'
M. Locatelli enters the game and replaces L. Biglia.
A like-for-like change in midfield for Milan, as Biglia is replaced by Locatelli.
71'
Poor from Bonaventura, as Milan break after Benevento concede possession in their own half. It opens up for the Italy midfielder but, yet again, the effort is straight at the visiting stopper.
70'
The latest change from Benevento shows exactly what their plans are for the final 20 minutes. Venuti is naturally a right-back and will play just in front of Sagna, looking to prevent Rodriguez's charges down the far side.
68'
L. Venuti enters the game and replaces E. Brignola.
Second change of the night for Benevento, with Fiorentina loanee Venuti introduced in place of Brignola.
66'
CLOSE! Benevento look more likely to score a second than Milan are to equalise! Viola, who set-up the game's only goal, fires from distance and Donnarumma is scrambling across his line, with the shot bouncing just wide of the mark.
64'
Milan may have changed shape again, as it seems Cutrone is back in a more central position alongside Kalinic. Bonaventura is back on the left again but his shot is comfortably saved by Puggioni.
62'
C. Diabaté enters the game and replaces P. Iemmello.
N. Kalinić enters the game and replaces André Silva.
Another poor performance from Portugal striker Andre Silva, who is replaced by Nikola Kalinic.
Benevento also make their first change, bringing on top-scorer Diabate in place of tonight's potential match-winning hero Iemmello.
61'
OFF THE BAR! What a strike by Kessie! Milan are crying out for a hero and their midfielder was almost that man. He charges forward, skipping past numerous opponents and fires a superb shot that cannons back off the frame of the goal.
59'
B. Sagna gets yellow.
Sagna picks up the game's first booking, which we've had to wait almost an hour for.
58'
Anyone hoping to witness a response from AC Milan will be extremely disappointed as the hosts have continued to struggle. They look to be in a real mess, which is a concern as there is still a fight for the Europa League ahead and the Coppa Italia final next month.
56'
Rodriguez's crosses from the left side tonight are yet to test Benevento, as the Switzerland international continues to fail to find a team-mate in the middle.
54'
Milan have changed formation to a more familiar 4-3-3, with Cutrone now playing out on the left with Silva through the middle. Suso, naturally, is on the right and he fires an effort way over the bar.
52'
OVER! Swift counter from Benevento catches Milan off their guard and Cataldi whizzes a shot over the top of the bar.
51'
Suso's introduction was definitely needed as Milan have been very poor down the right this evening. The Spain winger could change that but Calabria behind him is consistently giving the ball away.
49'
Suso enters the game and replaces F. Borini.
An unsurprising change as Suso enters the game, replacing the disappointing Borini.
47'
16 goals in 16 home games for Milan this season, a massive issue for Gattuso to fix this summer. Cutrone and Silva may eventually be the answer but will the club be happy to wait? An equaliser from either of them tonight would be huge.
45'
KICK-OFF! Back underway at the San Siro, where Benevento now attack to the left as they look to defend a surprising lead.
44'
Milan are at least banging on the door now, forcing some braves blocks from Benevento as they try to force an opening. It still isn't going their ay but there are some positive signs starting to emerge.
42'
SAVE! Decent strike from Bonaventura, who forces a strong diving save from Puggioni but it was at a decent height for the visiting stopper.
40'
Milan have been really poor tonight, it has to be said. Benevento have looked very threatening down the right and the hosts need a massive improvement after the break.
38'
OVER! Best move of the game from Milan! Kessie clips a delightful ball over the top for Cutrone, who takes the ball down brilliantly with his chest before lifting a shot over the bar.
36'
This scoreline is even more remarkable given the fact that Benevento have lost 15 of their 16 matches away from home this season, picking up just a single point- which came in their last away trip against Sassuolo.
32'
Well, Benevento may have just thrown the Europa League race wide open. As it stands, Milan are just two points ahead of Atalanta, with Sampdoria and Fiorentina another point back.
30'
And that confirms it! A bit of uncertainty as the referee consults with VAR but the goal is indeed given. Benevento have an unlikely lead!
29'
P. Iemmello has scored a goal for Benevento! Assist by N. Viola.
GOAL! Where did that come from! Benevento take the lead in controversial circumstances! Viola plays a superb ball through to Iemmello, who tucks home past Donnarumma. Milan are furious and appealing for offside.
A superbly waited ball from Viola, putting the ball on a plate for his team-mate.
27'
That sums up Milan so far. The hosts break with intent through Cutrone but his pass towards Silva is very poor and easily dealt with by the Benevento defence.
25'
The only save we've seen from either goalkeeper is Donnarumma being forced to hook the ball off the line by Rodriguez's poor pass back. Hopefully it opens up before the break!
21'
Still an open, balanced game and Milan haven't shown anything so far to suggest they can bring an end to their run of four consecutive draws. Gattuso will want a lot more from his side.
19'
Bonaventura steps-up with an in-swinging ball towards the far post, where Puggioni punches it away to the edge of the area. Biglia strikes a volley as the ball drops but it's way over the bar.
18'
Free-kick down the left after Bonabentura is barged to the ground, giving the opportunity for a decent ball to be played into the middle.
16'
CLOSE! Almost a bizarre opening goal! Rodriguez's pass back towards Donnarumma is very poor and almost catches the Italy international out, requiring the goalkeeper to hoof the ball off his line.
15'
Benevento are playing with strength, pushing forward whenever they get the chance, and they're certainly not being crushed under the weight of their impending relegation.
13'
The corner comes to nothing, which gives me a chance to talk about something a bit different. Both sets of teams and even the officials have red marks on their cheeks across Serie A this weekend to raise public awareness of violence against woman.
11'
Milan starting to settle into their rhythm and they have the width to stretch the play. They've just won the first corner of the game after Rodriguez's cross was headed behind.
9'
Fairly balanced game so far, with Milan edging possession but Benevento are playing confidently. The visitors are trying to keep the ball and play the 'right' way, whilst Gattuso's side are doing similiar but with a bit more zip in attack.
7'
Certainly not a game for shirt number purists, as there is two number 99's on the field, Sagna is wearing 83 and Cutrone is wearing 63 because six plus three is nine. Why can't things be simple anymore!?
5'
CHANCE! Milan start on the front foot and it's almost an early goal. Biglia played through to Borini out wide and it's driven back into the middle, where Silva miscues his attempt and fails to connect with the ball.
3'
Will be interesting to see how Milan perform tonight in a different shape, playing with young striking duo Cutrone and Andre Silva up top. The latter, costing £34m last year, has just two goals this term.
1'
KICK-OFF! We're underway at the San Siro, where AC Milan get us started and attack the left in the first half.
Good evening and welcome to our LIVE coverage of the Serie A clash between AC Milan and Benevento, where two sides with very different ambitions for the end of the season clash at the San Siro.
Milan's slim chances of pipping Inter Milan and Lazio to a top-four spot suffered a blow last week, where Gennaro Gattuso's side could only draw with ten-man Torino, but they cannot afford to let their heads drop as Europa League football is not yet secured- sitting just three points ahead of ninth-placed Fiorentina.
Benevento, meanwhile, caught global headlines in the reverse fixture when goalkeeper Alberto Brignoli scored a last-gasp equaliser in a 2-2 draw but it's been a tough slog for Roberto De Zerbi's side since. With five games to play, the minnows need to win every match to have any chance of avoiding an immediate return to Serie B- and failing to win tonight would seal their fate.
AC Milan XI: Gianluigi Donnarumma; Davide Calabria, Leonardo Bonucci, Cristian Zapata, Ricardo Rodriguez; Fabio Borini, Franck Kessie, Lucas Biglia, Giacoma Bonaventura; Andre Silva, Patrick Cutrone.
Milan subs: Antonio Donnarumma, Suso, Gustavo Gomez, Riccardo Montolivo, Marco Storari, Manuel Locatelli, Ignazio Ibate, Jose Mauri, Luca Antonelli, Nikola Kalinic, Mateo Musacchio.
Benevento subs: Alberto Brignoli, Lorenzo Venuti, Luca Sparandeo, Massimo Coda, Giovanni Volpicelli, Lorenzo Del Pinto, Siriki Sanogo, Christian Rutjens, Cheick Diabate, Jean-Claude Billong, Vittorio Parigini, Bright Gyamfi.
HALF-TIME! Well, nobody expected this! Pietro Iemmello's goal shortly before the half hour has given rock-bottom side Benevento a surprise lead and it keeps their very slim hopes of avoiding relegation alive. AC Milan have been very poor and Gennaro Gattuso needs to see a lot more from his side after the restart.
Benevento XI: Christian Puggioni; Bacary Sagna, Berat Djimsiti, Alin Tosca; Gaetano Letizia, Danilo Cataldi, Sandro, Nicolas Viola; Enrico Brignola, Pietro Iemmello; Filip Djuricic.
Milan, on the back of four consecutive draws that have all but ended their hopes of a top-four finish, have really struggled to make any sort of impact. The damage could have serious consequences too, as their spot in the Europa League next season is far from secure.
Benevento need to win all of their remaining five matches to have any chance of avoiding an immediate return to Serie B and they're certainly giving it a good go. They already upset Milan once this season, drawing 2-2 in the reverse fixture, and they're on course to do even better at the San Siro.
FULL-TIME! A fantastic result for Benevento, who pick up their first ever Serie A victory away from home and fend off the threat of relegation for at least one more day. A Crotone win tomorrow against Udinese would relegate them but Pietro Iemmello's first-half goal has given the minnows a historic victory.
Milan, who entered the game with four consecutive draws, were woeful again this evening and it blows open the Europa League race. It's a huge chance for Atalanta and Sampdoria below them to narrow the advantage, leaving Gattuso's side winless in five games ahead of the trip to Bologna next week.
As mentioned, Benevento could still be relegated tomorrow but they've given their fans something to remember for generations and could provide a boost in their final four games of the Serie A campaign. Relegation is still likely for the minnows this season but this result will send shockwaves across the continent.
