Ademola Lookman scored a dramatic 87th-minute winner to help Atalanta secure a 2-1 victory over AC Milan. His goal, marking his 10th of the season, propelled Atalanta to the top of Serie A, extending their unbeaten run to nine matches, their longest since 2020.
Ademola Lookman secured a dramatic last-minute winner for Atalanta in their 2-1 victory over AC Milan on Friday. The match at Gewiss Stadium saw Atalanta take the lead early with Charles De Ketelaere’s header in the 12th minute, but Milan equalized through Alvaro Morata just 10 minutes later.
Both teams had multiple chances, but Lookman’s persistence paid off in the 87th minute. His header from a corner-kick sent the ball past Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan, marking his 10th goal of the season.
This late strike was crucial, giving Atalanta all three points and sending them to the top of Serie A, two points ahead of second-place Napoli. The win also marked their ninth consecutive Serie A victory, a feat not achieved since 2020.
