Gallery: ‘Super Diavolo, ‘A Scudetto-worthy show’ – Today’s front pages in Italy

AC Milan produced one of their best performances of the season so far on Tuesday night as they ran out rampant winners against Bologna.

After a bit of a shaky start, the game was very much in hand by half-time after Ruben Loftus-Cheek opened the scoring and Christopher Nkunku buried a penalty that he had earned. Adrien Rabiot netted early in the second half, and the scoreline would remain 3-0.
