Ronaldinho dazzles but Milan stunned by Bologna

ROME: Ronaldinho sparkled on his debut but could not prevent AC Milan slumping to a dismal 2-1 home defeat to Serie A newboy Bologna in its opener at the San Siro on Sunday.

Former Milan forward Alberto Gilardino scored an equalizer a minute from time to earn 10-man Fiorentina a 1-1 home draw against Juventus.

It was a poor start for the scudetto hopefuls as AS Roma was held 1-1 at home to 10-man Napoli while Jose Mourinho's first game in charge of Inter Milan on Saturday night ended in a 1-1 stalemate at Sampdoria.
