Goals by Rafael Leao and Olivier Giroud gave AC Milan a comfortable 2-0 win over Bologna at San Siro on Saturday as they moved to the top after their third Serie A game of the season. In another match, AS Roma striker Tammy Abraham scored late in the second half to secure a 1-1 draw at Juventus, cancelling out an early opener by Dusan Vlahovic as Jose Mourinho’s side remained unbeaten after three games in Serie A this season.

For Milan, Portuguese Leao opened the scoring in the 21st minute after being found by new signing Charles De Ketelaere who got his first assist in Serie A on his first start. Frenchman Giroud doubled the lead in the 58th minute with an acrobatic volley to wrap up the points in a match where Milan hardly broke sweat as Bologna had no attempts on goal.
