It is always quite hard to quantify a victory by seven goals in terms of magnitude, but the statistics that have emerged after it are quite remarkable.
Milan romped to a 7-0 win over Torino on Wednesday night, following up their 3-0 victory in the same city against Juventus on Sunday. A 12-minute Ante Rebic hat-trick was the highlight after a Theo Hernandez brace plus goals from Franck Kessie and Brahim Diaz.
