MILAN- The Round 38 Serie A match between Atalanta-Milan in Bergamo has ended 3-1 in favour of the rossoneri.
It was Atalanta that took the lead on 21 minutes thanks to Baselli, but a penalty from Pazzini and then a close range tap-in from Bonaventura completed the comeback and took Milan into a 2-1 lead at half-time. The rossoneri eventually opened up a two goal cushion with 10 minutes remaining and once again it was Bonaventura on target. The ex-Atalanta man as a sign of respect, and just like for his first goal, didn’t celebrate in front of his former fans. CLICK HERE to read more from the minute by minute match report!
