Zlatan Ibrahimovic took no prisoners on his AC Milan return, manhandling Lucas Leiva - with no Lazio players daring to confront him in a flashpoint during their league fixture.
Ibrahimovic, 39, made an instant impact when he entered the fray on Sunday.
He came on in the 60th minute and found the back of the net just seven minutes later.

Then, moments before the final whistle, the former Manchester United man clashed with ex-Liverpool midfielder Lucas.

Ibrahimovic had a few words, but no Lazio players confronted him over the incident.
Maurizio Sarri, though, received a red card after his remonstrations towards the match officials.
There's never a dull moment with Ibrahimovic. Welcome back.
