AC Milan seals statement win over Real Madrid
Milan dealt Real Madrid a huge blow to its top eight hopes in the Champions League with an emphatic victory at the Bernabeu.
Milan won an away match against the reigning European Champion for the first time after claiming a stunning 3-1 victory against Real Madrid in the Champions League.
The result moves Milan up to 18th in the table on six points from its four games, level with Madrid but behind Los Blancos by one place on goal difference.
Malick Thiaw headed the visitor into a 12th minute lead at the Bernabeu, planting a powerful header beyond Andrii Lunin after Christian Pulisic's pinpoint corner kick.
But Milan joy was short-lived when Emerson Royal fouled Vinicius Junior in the box 11 minutes later, with the Brazilian stepping up to level the contest from 12 yards.
However, Paulo Fonseca's side entered the break with the lead when former Madrid striker Alvaro Morata finished from close range after being the quickest to react to Rafael Leao's spilled effort.
Leao was again involved for Milan's third, with his driving run ending with a smart cutback to Tijjani Reijnders, who sealed a statement win for the Rossoneri.
