Serie A Standing BEFORE the game
AC Milan, 1st position with 43 points and a positive goal difference of +20
Atalanta, 6th position with 33 points and a positive goal difference of +18
AC Milan humiliated but keep the first position and title of winter champion despite losing the Serie A Week 19 game against Atalanta on Saturday 23 January 2021 at the San Siro Stadium in Milan, Italy. However, the lost still “luckily” secure AC Milan sole leadership with 43 points because Inter draw 0-0 with Udinese at the Dacia Arena. . AC Milan having 43 points and Inter 41 points. Truth is that Milan were crushed, demolished, and what an embarrassing home defeat. Well done for Atalanta keeping a strong front.
A painful debut for AC Milan forward Mario Mandzukic unable to score a goal. It’s a wake up call for AC Milan to keep focused or losing the first position next week…. For Atalanta, the victory is a boost for the morale of the team to keep fighting for the top 5 positions.
@Milan demolished in San Siro by Atalanta with a 0-3. The big question, “Where were Milan?” Merits to @Atalanta_BC for this important victory.
Despite the lost, Milan kept the 1st position with 43 points because @Inter_en draw 0-0 with Udinese reaching 41 points. @socios pic.twitter.com/PhOFuBHRLP

Chaos for AC Milan. Atalanta increasing the score for the 0-2 in the 53rd minute with Josip Ilicic converting a penalty conceded by Franck Kessié. Atalanta is just slapping AC Milan in San Siro and now an uphill battle for the Rossoneri to overturn this result.
