AC Milan easily defeated Verona 3-0 in the 17th round of the Serie A championship thanks to a brace from Christopher Nkunku.
Nkunku, who joined from Chelsea for 37 million euros in the summer, had not scored a single goal so far this season. The imminent signing of Niklas Füllkrug may have given the Frenchman a boost. Nkunku scored both of his goals within five minutes of each other.
Milan's two Swiss internationals were only substituted when the score was already 3-0. Ardon Jashari replaced Luka Modric in the 71st minute and Zachary Athekame came on for Alexis Saelemaekers six minutes later.
