AC Milan 2-0 Fiorentina: Bacca, Boateng ease pressure on Mihajlovic

AC Milan coach Sinisa Mihajlovic saw Carlos Bacca and Kevin-Prince Boateng score to secure an important 2-0 home win against Fiorentina.

Carlos Bacca's early strike and Kevin-Prince Boateng's late goal gave AC Milan a 2-0 home win against Fiorentina that eases some of the pressure on beleaguered coach Sinisa Mihajlovic.

Milan has reportedly lined up World Cup-winning veteran Marcello Lippi to replace Mihajlovic but three vital points could yet see the Serbian extend his embattled tenure.

Bacca put Milan into the lead within four minutes, turning his marker and bending a lovely finish beyond Ciprian Tatarusanu after being played in by Giacomo Bonaventura.
