Hello my friends. Here are the 2017-2018 Serie A Week 18 Results for the Eighteenth Round on Friday 22 and Saturday 23 December 2017.  I want to wish all of you a Happy Merry Christmas!   We will have the Coppa Italia Quarterfinals on Tuesday 26 and Wednesday 27.  There is no Christmas break and Round 19 will be played on Friday 29 and Saturday 30 December.

Napoli securing the first position  after recovering it  last week.   Napoli remaining the sole leader of the Serie A after defeating Sampdoria at the San Paolo Stadium.   Napoli reaching 45 points.    Final result is 3-2.  The historical goal by Napoli Captain Marek Hamsik surpassing the all-time goal record by Diego Armando Maradona with 115 goals, now Hamsik scoring 116 goals.

Juventus securing the second position after defeating AS Roma with a 1-0 at the Juventus Stadium.   Juventus reaching 44 points is only -1 point Napoli!   The race for the Scudetto suddenly turning from a three-way to a two-race.

A blow  the two Milan teams.  Inter losing the second consecutive game this season.  Last week, Inter lost the first position and went down to the third position which is a big disappointment.  Inter’s objective to win the Scudetto risking big time and even losing momentum.   AC Milan also losing their second consecutive game and is chaos!  Atalanta defeated AC Milan with a 0-2 result at the San Siro Stadium.

Lazio rocking big time at the Olimpico Stadium.  Lazio crushing  Crotone with a 4-0.  Lazio reaching 36 points.   Problem is for Crotone going down from the 16th to the 18 position in the relegation zone.

Good news is for SPAL.   There is a light at the end of the tunnel.   Spal ending with a 2-2 draw against Torino.  Spal escaping from the relegation zone climbing from the 18th to the 17th position.

The direct duel between AC Milan and Atalanta having 24 points before the game is won by Atalanta.  A total flop, a major step back for AC Milan falling at the San Siro Stadium.  For AC Milan, the challenge is loud and clear “get back to the winning road” or else.  The objective to be in Champions League next season is almost gone.   The gap between AC Milan and the first position in Serie A is “huge.”  Milan with 24 points is down -21 points below Napoli having 45 points.

The match starting with an arguably decision.  In the 14th minute, the goal by AC Milan midfielder Giacomo Bonaventura is ruled out after consulting the VAR. Bonaventura being off side.

It is Atalanta to open the score in the 32nd minute. Bryan Cristante defeating AC Milan goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma from close range with a right footed shot in the top right corner.

Total chaos for AC Milan! Atalanta increasing the score in the 71st minute for the 0-2. It is forward Josip Ilicic to send the chills to Milan fans after his goal with a right footed shotto the bottom left corner. The assist is by Leonardo Spinazzola with a cross.

Here is AC MILAN official starting lineup – formation by Coach Gennaro Gattuso

AC MILAN (4-3-3): Donnarumma; Abate, Musacchio, Bonucci, Rodríguez; Kessie, Montolivo, Bonaventura; Borini, Kalinić, Cutrone.
