AC Milan suffer second defeat in 3-0 thrashing by Atalanta
Serie A league leaders, AC Milan, have suffered their second defeat of the season after Atalanta secured a 3-0 victory at San Siro.
Cristian Romero put the visitors ahead with a superb header in the 26th minute before Josip Iličić (53′ (P) and Duván Zapata (77′) added to the tally in the second half.
The defeat is Milan’s heaviest home loss in Serie A since Roma beat them 4:1 on 7 May 2017. It is also the first time Stefano Pioli’s men failed to score in a Serie A match since 6 Jan 2020 (0:0 vs Sampdoria).
Regardless of the defeat, Pioli’s men remain top of the Serie A with two points ahead of second-placed Inter Milan who played a goalless draw against Udinese.
AC Milan’s unbeaten run ended on the 6th of January after suffering a 3-1 defeat to defending champions, Juventus, at the San Siro Stadium
Meanwhile, Gian Piero Gasperini’s Atalanta moved into the top four on 36 points, after back-to-back draws against Genoa and Udinese.
