AC Milan maintained the perfect start to the Serie A with a commanding 4-1 over Torino at the San Siro on Saturday night.
Stefano Pioli’s men looked sharper, more aggressive and fluent and deservedly found themselves 1-0 in front after 33 minutes through new signing Christian Pulisic.

The hosts found themselves in a bit of trouble just three minutes later when Torino equalised with Perr Schuurs.
However, normal service were resumed in the 43th minute, when Olivier Giroud slotted home a penalty and in injury time the Rossoneris were 3-1 up after Theo Hernandez’ fine strike.
Pioli’s men were controlling the pace in the second half and a well-converted second penalty by Giroud gave them the much needed calmness.
They now sit atop of the table of Serie A with superior goal difference to Verona, who also have the maximum 6 points out of 6.
