Gennaro Gattuso Insists CL Qualification Is the Main Aim for Milan After Win Over SPAL

Gennaro Gattuso has insisted Champions League qualification is Milan's main aim after his side secured a hard-fought 2-1 win over SPAL at the San Siro.

Milan were the better of the two sides in the contest, but it was SPAL who took a shock lead after Andrea Petagna's deflected strike found the bottom corner of Gianluigi Donnarumma's goal. The San Siro went silent, however it didn't take long for Milan to respond.

Just three minutes later, summer signing Samu Castillejo latched on to a loose pass before unleashing a stinging left-footed shot from 12 yards out which flew into the top corner to get Milan back on level terms.
