Watch: Kessie gives Milan an early lead against Benevento by firing in from the penalty spot

Franck Kessie made it five goals for the season in Serie A as he gave AC Milan the lead away against Benevento with an emphatic penalty.

After Benevento had a penalty shout turned down at one end as Caprari went down under a challenge from Brahim Diaz, Milan were awarded a spot kick of their own when Rebic pressed and was cleaned out by Tuia inside the box with the home side failing to play out from the back.

Kessie took on the responsibility and made absolutely no mistake from 12 yards, sending Montipo the wrong way and sidefooting into the top left corner.
