Samuel Chukwueze scored twice as a rampant AC Milan crushed Serie B leaders Sassuolo 6-1 at the San Siro on Tuesday to reach the Italian Cup quarter-finals. Milan are now unbeaten in seven games in all competitions after an inconsistent start to life under new coach Paulo Fonseca. The seven-time European champions are hoping to win a first Italian Cup since 2003 and only their sixth in total. "It was a very good performance, the first half was magnificent and also helped me to rest some players," Fonseca told Sport Mediaset.
"I have only positive things to say, as we took it very seriously, I am very satisfied with the attitude of the players."
Chukwueze put the hosts in front in the 12th minute, bundling the ball into the net after his initial attempt had come back off the post.
Milan doubled their advantage barely five minutes later, as Tijjani Reijnders slammed home a brilliant strike when a loose ball fell his way outside the box.
Sassuolo were powerless to stop the waves of Milan attacks and Fonseca's side made it three in the 21st minute.
