Alexandre Pato struck deep in stoppage time to hand AC Milan a come-from-behind 2-1 win at Fiorentina.
The outcome has lifted the Rossoneri above Roma into second in Serie A and reduced the gap with league leaders Inter Milan to four points.
Former AC Milan striker Alberto Gilardino opened the scoring in the 14th minute before Klass Jan Huntelaar came off the bench to
restore parity with nine minutes remaining.
AC Milan goalkeeper Christian Abbiati kept his team in the game with two great saves before Pato silenced the fans at the Artemio Franchi stadium seconds from time.
England midfielder David Beckham had been dropped to the bench for the second league game in a row.
Pasquale Marino celebrated his return to the bench with a crucial victory as Udinese came from behind to secure all three points against high-flying Cagliari in a 2-1 win.
The visitors got off to the perfect start when Jeda headed them in front with less than three minutes played.
However, two goals in as many second-half minutes from Alexis Sanchez and top scorer Antonio Di Natale marked Marino's return to the helm with a bang.
Udinese creep up to 15th with that result, while Cagliari are in eighth, two points off a Europa League spot.
