AC Milan denies 10-man Cagliari

STEPHAN El Shaarawy scored twice to help crisis-ridden AC Milan to a much-needed 2-0 win against 10-man Cagliari in Serie A on Wednesday in Milan.

El Shaarawy, who also scored in the loss at Udinese on Sunday, netted in each half and also had an effort deflected onto the crossbar as Milan ended the jinx of the new San Siro pitch.

It was the team's first goals at home in any competition this season.

Elsewhere, Edinson Cavani missed a penalty but scored a hat trick as Napoli beat title rival Lazio 3-0 to move level on points with defending champion Juventus at the top of the table.

"I don't know if it's a two-way fight with Juventus for the title, it's way too early to say so," Cavani said.

Inter Milan strolled to a 2-0 win at Chievo Verona. Catania beat Atalanta 2-1 while Genoa drew 1-1 with Parma. Torino rued its poor luck, hitting the woodwork three times in a 0-0 draw with Udinese.
