It helped the Real forward to forget about the loss and enjoy himself as Madrid's spectacular 2014 ended with somewhat of a whimper.
Serbian Djokovic is a keen Milan fan, although he also supports Red Star Belgrade and Portuguese side Benfica, and was in attendance for the game.
Strikes from Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema were not enough for Carlo Ancelotti's men as goals from Jeremy Menez and Giampaolo Pazzini, as well as a brace from Stephan El Shaarawy, ensured Milan were victorious.
