Kessie and Bennacer on display as AC Milan trash Lecce in Serie A return

AC Milan’s return to Serie A action started on a very bright note as they saw off Lecce 4-1 at the Stadio Via del Mare on Monday night with Franck Kessie and Ismael Bennacer both playing.

Before the suspension of the league in March due to coronavirus, the Rossoneri claimed just one victory in four matches, losing two at home against fierce rivals Inter Milan and then Genoa.

They started on the front foot here with Samuel Castillejo getting assisted by Hakan Calhanoglu in the 26th minute.
