Dries Mertens pulled one back for the home side just after the hour mark, but it was too little, too late for Genaro Gattuso’s side as their hopes of a comeback suffered a blow two minutes later when on-loan Chelsea midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko received a red card.
Napoli were also without the services of summer signing Victor Osimhen who got injured his shoulder playing for Nigeria during the international break.
Norwegian forward Jens Petter Hauge wrapped up the win for Milan in added time with his first Serie A goal to put the game to sleep at 3-1 in favour of the visitors.
