Ruben Amorim continued his 100% start to Serie A life at AC Milan as his side beat Venezia 2-0 on Friday.
The former Manchester United manager guided Milan to victory at Torino in his opening match before seeing off Venezia at the San Siro as his side took an early lead at the summit.
Gonçalo Ramos scored his first goal for the club following his move from Paris Saint-Germain, with Redouane Halhal's late own goal securing the points.
Before the game, Milan paid an emotional tribute to Franco Baresi with a minute's silence following the former defender's recent death.
The hosts dominated from the off and Ramos could have opened the scoring in the 12th minute as a solo run saw him enter the penalty area, but goalkeeper Filip Stanković did well to keep the ball out.

Morocco face Canada at Houston Stadium on Saturday evening in the World Cup round of 16, with a place in the quarter-finals against Paraguay or France on the line.
Mohamed Ouahbi's side beat the Netherlands on penalties after a dramatic last-32 tie, Issa Diop heading in a 91st-minute equaliser before the Atlas Lions won the shootout 3–2.
Morocco are unbeaten in nine consecutive competitive matches, concede very little, and have a squad packed with Premier League and European quality. Canada are the underdogs. Morocco have won three of the four previous meetings between the sides.
Ouahbi is expected to have a fully-fit squad available for the round of 16. The one fitness concern from the Netherlands match has been resolved. Chadi Riad was substituted at 75 minutes after a knock but made a rapid return to full training and is expected to start at centre-back alongside Issa Diop. Redouane Halhal and Marwane Saadane remain available as defensive cover should Riad face any late setback.
Ismael Saibari starts up front. The 25-year-old, who signed for Bayern Munich in the days immediately following the Netherlands victory, scored three goals in Morocco's group-stage campaign and added the winning penalty in the shootout. His movement, finishing and set-piece delivery have been central to everything Morocco have done in attack.
