Milan achieve vital feat following Salzburg win

Milan have achieved a vital feat in their history following their win over Salzburg in the UEFA Champions League.

The Rossoneri had to get a point from the game to qualify for the knockout stages of the Champions League, considering Dinamo Zagrebโ€™s poor goal difference and inferior points tally. They picked up a 4-0 win, thanks to a brace from the impressive Olivier Giroud.

But the win at San Siro means that this is the first time since the 2013/14 season that the Rossoneri have qualified for the Round of 16 of the Champions League.

While they did play in the competition last season, Stefano Pioli side couldnโ€™t go into the next round of the competition and finished rock bottom, meaning that they didnโ€™t even take part in the Europa League. They could rack up only four points last season, as Liverpool and Atletico Madrid went through to the next round.
