Kaka and Alberto Gilardino both scored two goals Sunday to help AC Milan beat Lazio 5-1 and get its first victory in six rounds of the Italian first division.

Kaka converted a penalty kick in the 33rd and doubled his tally in the 52nd after holding off two defenders and shooting through the legs of Lazio goalkeeper Nestor Fernando Muslera.

The Brazil star then created an opening in the 70th for Gilardino, who beat Muslera for his first goal of the season.

Gilardino, whose recent form has been heavily criticized, completed the rout in the 79th with a volley from close range.

"We showed tonight that Milan has a lot of desire," Gilardino said. "We were convinced that we could play a great game."
