Balotelli makes 1st start for AC Milan vs. Udinese
Stefano Rellandini / Reuters
Mario Balotelli passed a late fitness test on Tuesday to start against Udinese - his first match for AC Milan since re-joining the club on a season-long loan from Liverpool.
Coincidentally, Balotelli made his initial debut for Milan in February 2013 against Udinese after his move from Manchester City.
The start comes after coach Sinisa Mihajlovic hailed Balotelli's behaviour as "exemplary."
