AC Milan shrugged off an unbelievable Robinho miss, and an interruption caused when teargas was thrown outside the ground, to record a 2-0 win at Genoa that took it to the top of Serie A Friday. Zlatan Ibrahimovic won and converted a second-half penalty and Antonio Nocerino side-footed the second while the host had former Milan defender Kakha Kaladze sent off in the 54th minute. In between the goals Robinho somehow contrived to scoop the ball over the bar from two meters after a low cross by Alberto Aquilani who was left thumping the ground in anger. “Robinho also played an important part in the penalty, football is like that,” said Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri. “We controlled the match after the first goal.” The game was halted for nine minutes in the first half after the teargas incident left players, officials and fans coughing and wiping their eyes. Local media said police threw the teargas to stop scuffling outside the stadium. Milan has 27 points from 13 games, one ahead of unbeaten Juventus. Udinese is third on 24. Marseille beats Caen Marseille made up ground in the race for a European spot Friday as the Ayew brothers led the 2010 champion to a 2-1 win over Caen in the French league. Marseille trails leader Montpellier by nine points.
