1: 1! New aid blitzed, Milan braked suddenly: from 5 consecutive wins to 2 consecutive draws, and was left behind by Napoli by 3 points

In the last round, AC Milan had a tough home draw with bottom-ranked Pisa. AC Milan's previous five-game winning streak in the league came to an abrupt end. In addition, Naples defeated Inter Milan, and Milan also gave up the top spot; however, as the only team in the top four that does not have a European war, Milan is still regarded as a favorite to win the championship. This week, Serie A ushered in a double match. Milan took the lead in the 9th round against Atalanta. The two sides tied with 1:1. Milan suffered 2 consecutive draws and was temporarily separated by 3 points from Naples.

Atalanta has been one of the strong teams in Serie A over the years. However, with the departure of Gasperini, Juric, who took over, obviously failed to inherit the fighting strength of Gagaon. Although the True Nerazzurri remained undefeated in the first 8 rounds, they drew 6 games. Allegri continued his 3-5-2 configuration in this game: Tomori, Gabbia, and Pavlovic served as a 3-back system; Salle Markles and Baltesaghi were on the wings; Modric, Ricci, and Yusuf Fofana partnered in the midfield; the double forwards were Leo and Santiago Jimenez.

Milan's start was extremely smooth. In the 4th minute, Ricci hit Ederson with a long shot from outside the penalty area. The ball changed direction and scored, 1:0! Xia Chuang Ricci joined from Turin for 23 million euros and successfully scored his first goal in his 8th game with Milan. However, Atlanta, playing at home, immediately counterattacked; in the 8th minute, Sheen headed a header from the penalty area, and the ball missed the post; in the 21st minute, Lookman received the ball at the top of the arc and turned to shoot from a long distance. Maignan did not dare to fall to the ground to save the ball.

In the 27th minute, Pasalic scored the ball, and Ahanol kicked the ball away from the left side of the penalty area without being marked; in the 35th minute, Zappacosta, Decatrale and others made consecutive kicks, and Lukman caught the ball from offside and shot the ball from the left side of the penalty area, 1:1! Lookman scored 20 goals last season, setting a new career record; after his summer transfer failed, he didn't score his first goal of the season until this game.

Just returned from the second half, Nkunku replaced Leo, who was in poor condition; Jimenez was replaced by Chik due to injury; in the 66th minute, Salle Markles was in the corner kick attack The volley shot was blocked by his teammate. Chik followed up with a follow-up shot and another shot was blocked by Atlanta's defense. In the subsequent tactical corner kick, Nkunku made a pass from the left, Baltesaghi returned it, and Fofana's hook shot missed directly.

In the 80th minute, Brescianini took a corner kick, and Sheen shook his head and hit the goal, hitting the post and going out of bounds; in the 84th minute, Lukman returned from the wing, and Zappacosta ran along the left and cut in with the instep to volley. Maignan made another wonderful dive to save the danger. Atlanta could have completed the final blow against the precarious Milan defense, but Juric's tactics were extremely conservative; in the remaining time, with a clear advantage and 17 shots completed in the game, they tied with Milan at home 1:1.
