Atalanta 3-2 AC Milan: Lookman's double leads hosts to victory in five-goal thriller

On Saturday, Atalanta defeated AC Milan 3-2 at home thanks to a back-heel flick in added time from substitute Luis Muriel following a double from striker Ademola Lookman.

Muriel scored in the 95th minute, two minutes after Milan defender Davide Calabria was sent off for a second yellow card.

Milan are still in third place with 29 points, seven points behind leaders Juventus, who defeated visiting champions Napoli 1-0 on Friday, and six points behind Inter Milan. Atalanta are seventh with 23 points.

Lookman opened the scoring for the hosts in the 38th minute with a right-footed shot from the center of the field that deflected off Milan defender Fikayo Tomori and flew past goalkeeper Mike Maignan.

Just before the break, Milan equalized with Olivier Giroud's superb header from a corner, his eighth league goal of the season.

Lookman scored his second goal 10 minutes after the break, finishing clinically from Charles De Ketelaere's cross-field pass. In the 80th minute, Luka Jovic's left-foot finish from Christian Pulisic's cross into the box tied the game at 2-2.

But in stoppage time, Calabria was sent off for a second yellow card, and Muriel, who came on in the 82nd minute, gave Atalanta the win.
