Baku, September 15, AZERTAC
Stefano Pioli’s AC Milan side sealed a 3-1 win over Dinamo Zagreb at San Siro to move to the top of Group E in the Champions League, according to Eurosport.
Going into the game, it was all to play for in Group E after Chelsea's shock defeat to Milan's opponents on the opening matchday.
For Pioli, Saelemaekers, Brahim Diaz and Leao all looked dangerous in spells, and the Milan coach will be keen for his side to continue their unbeaten start to the season. It was also the Rossoneri's first win at San Siro in the Champions League since they defeated Celtic 2-0 at home back in 2013.
In another match the same day, a fine strike from rising star Mykhaylo Mudryk saw Shakhtar Donetsk come from a goal behind to earn a 1-1 draw against Scottish champions Celtic in Warsaw in Champions League Group F.
Up next for Celtic is another away day, they face RB Leipzig on October 5, while Shakhtar face a daunting trip to the Bernabeu to face defending champions Real Madrid.
