ZURICH (Reuters) - Arsenal turned the form book upside down and gave manager Arsene Wenger much-needed respite with a shock 2-0 win away to AC Milan in the Europa League on Thursday. Twice former champions Atletico Madrid eased past Lokomotiv Moscow 3-0 as all three Russian clubs lost. Milan were more purposeful in the second half but Arsenal held out comfortably with a resilience missing from their recent performances. Valon Berisha scored twice early in the second half, the first from a penalty, as Salzburg stunned Dortmund, who replied through Andre Schuerrle. Fredy Montero scored twice either side of halftime to give Sporting, Portugal's last European survivors, a 2-0 win at home to Viktoria Plzen in the other game.
