Ancelotti stays cool despite four-star show

ROME: AC Milan returned to form with a thumping 4-1 victory over previously unbeaten Lazio at the San Siro on Sunday to ease the pressure on under-fire coach Carlo Ancelotti.

The former Milan and AS Roma midfielder had been feeling the strain after his team lost its first two Serie A encounters.

But a midweek UEFA Cup success against FC Zurich restored Milan's self-confidence and goals from Clarence Seedorf, Gianluca Zambrotta, Pato and Kaka earned them a much-needed first three league points of the season.
