ROME: Youngster Stephanel Shaarawy was the hero as AC Milan hit back from a goal down to beat Udinese 2-1 and take over at the top of the Serie A table. The Rossoneri leapfrogged Juventus, although they have played two games more than their rivals. Antonio Di Natale gave Udinese a first-half lead but Maxi Lopez equalised before Shaarawy snatched the winner five minutes from time. Elsewhere, Cagliari beat Palermo 2-1.
