Italy's Serie A resumed yesterday with 10 matches, where fans were admitted to four games. Serie B resumed with spectators allowed into just five of the 11 matches.
The day's fixtures passed off without a repeat of the violence that has ravaged the country's leagues in recent weeks. A minute's silence was observed at the start of all matches in memory of policeman Filippo Raciti, who died on 2 February.
The San Siro stadium was only open to its 37,000 season-ticket holders, where Ronaldo made his Milan debut, coming on as a substitute in the 63rd minute.
Italian media reported that 28 new electronic turnstiles had been installed overnight.
The Italian government is now drawing up strict new anti-hooliganism measures in response to the violence.
