AC Milan 2-0 Perugia: Honda and Luiz Adriano win cup clash for Rossoneri

Sinisa Mihajlovic's men never looked troubled against the lower league Italian side as they coasted into the Coppa Italia's fourth round.

Goals from Keisuke Honda and Luiz Adriano ensured Sinisa Mihajlovic got off to a winning start as AC Milan head coach on Monday, securing a 2-0 Coppa Italia success over Perugia.

After a miserable 2014-15 that saw Milan finish 10th in Serie A and Filippo Inzaghi fired, Mihajlovic's new-look side fizzed with energy at San Siro on the club's first competitive outing of the season.

Honda was at the heart of everything positive coming from the home side as he netted the first and created the second for new signing Luiz Adriano inside 30 minutes.
