AC Milan maintain winning run

AC Milan have notched their fourth successive win in Serie A with a 4-1 triumph over Pescara.

The deadlock was broken after just 35 seconds when Riccardo Montolivo slipped the ball through for Stephan El Shaarawy, who squared for Antonio Nocerino to net.

Montolivo, Robinho and El Shaarawy all tested Mattia Perin in the Pescara goal, but the youngster managed to keep the Rossoneri at bay until half time.

An own goal by Elvis Abbruscato doubled Milan's advantage five minutes after the break, but hope was quickly restored by Christian Terlizzi.

However, a second own goal - this time by Jonathas - put the game beyond reach, before El Shaarawy blasted his 14th goal of the season to wrap up the points.
