MILAN - Stefano Pioli's Nerazzurri made short work of Pescara as they recorded a seventh consecutive league victory at the San Siro on Saturday night.

Danilo D'Ambrosio got the ball rolling midway through the first half when he turned in Marcelo Brozovic's cross at the far post.

Joao Mario made it 2-0 before the interval following a well-worked move involving Mauro Icardi and Ivan Perisic, with the Portuguese midfielder finishing from close range.

In the second period Eder made it three less then two minutes after coming off the bench as Icardi provided a neat cutback following Brozovic's through ball.
