ROME: Veteran Filippo Inzaghi fired a hat-trick to send AC Milan to second in Serie A following a 5-1 win over Torino at the San Siro on Sunday.

It was Inzaghi's second hat-trick in his last six matches and took his tally during that period to nine goals to continue his remarkable resurrection this season.

He was not even a regular first team starter until last month and this was only his 10th league start of the campaign.
