Kaka and Beckham star as Milan close in on top


Kaka proved the Manchester City transfer saga is well and truly behind him as he scored a brace in AC Milan's 4-1 victory at Bologna on Sunday as David Beckham scored his first goal in Italian football.

The win moved Milan to within three points of top spot ahead of Inter Milan's visit of Sampdoria in the day's late game.

It was Kaka's first match since his proposed world record switch to money-bags City was called off on Monday and he proved he was as good as ever with a calmly taken penalty and a rocket with his left foot to ensure Milan continued their title charge.

Kaka's contribution deflected somewhat from Beckham's first goal for Milan since joining on loan from the LA Galaxy earlier this month.
