Simeone, who featured for Argentina at the Olympic Games and signed for Genoa from River Plate in August, gave his side the lead shortly after half-time.
Receiving a pass from Santiago Gentiletti, Simeone took a touch to get the ball out of his feet and hit a sharp left-footed finish inside Albano Bizzarri's near post.
Unfortunately for the 21-year-old and Genoa, they could not close out the match, with red cards for Edenilson and Goran Pandev proving key as Rey Manaj equalised with five minutes to play.
