An early goal by Ismael Bennacer and a Theo Hernandez stunner gave AC Milan a much-needed 2-0 home win over Lazio in Serie A on Saturday, sending Stefano Pioli's side provisionally back into the top four.
Milan, who had drawn four of their previous five league matches, moved up two places to fourth on 61 points, one ahead of fifth-placed Inter Milan and three more than Atalanta in sixth who both have a game in hand.
"If the team play is at a high level, we can do better with individuals, but it's important to play football well. Today we did even without someone as decisive as Rafa." The Frenchman sped through the entire pitch to finish off an impressive solo effort, which started right outside Milan's own box.
Powerless Lazio, who suffered their third loss in four Serie A games, ended the clash with no shot on target.
