AC Milan 3 Verona 0: Bonaventura shines as Gattuso's side march on

Gennaro Gattuso claimed a second successive win as AC Milan boss with a 3-0 triumph over Verona in the Coppa Italia round of 16.

Giacomo Bonaventura continued his fine form as AC Milan eased into the quarter-finals of the Coppa Italia with a comfortable 3-0 victory over Serie A strugglers Verona.

Gennaro Gattuso claimed his first win as Milan's boss thanks to Bonaventura's double against Bologna last time out, and the 28-year-old put in an inspired first-half display on Wednesday.

Having been integral to Suso's somewhat fortuitous 22nd-minute opener, Bonaventura again showed his quality with a wonderful assist for Alessio Romagnoli on the half-hour.
