Two goals right before halftime put visiting AC Milan on its way to a comfortable 4-0 win over Udinese in Serie A on Friday and extended the home side´s losing streak to four matches.
Udinese is on its worst run since the end of the 2022-23 season, when it also lost four in a row. It remains in 11th place.
The win left Milan in ninth, one point behind Fiorentina, but it will worry about an injury to goalkeeper Mike Maignan, who was taken off on a stretcher after colliding with teammate Alex Jiménez.
Rafael Leao´s superb strike from 18 meters was quickly followed by Strahinja Pavlovic´s glancing header from a corner on the stroke of halftime.
Udinese was forced to chase the game in the second half and Milan took advantage of gaps that opened up.
Theo Hernández added a third in the 74th minute when he started a sweeping move in his own half and finished it off with an unstoppable shot.
Substitute Tammy Abraham´s superb cross led to a fourth from Tijjani Reijnders 10 minutes from time.
