Montella dedicates AC Milan win to Berlusconi

All three goals came in the first-half of a compelling contest, with Nikola Kalinic cancelling out Juraj Kucka's headed opener for the hosts before Gerard Deulofeu curled home what proved to be the winner just past the half-hour mark.

And with Berlusconi possibly attending his final home game before a takeover by Chinese investors is completed next month, Montella was particularly pleased to see his side secure what was just their second win in seven outings.
