Milan was one step away from the Serie A title by beating Atalanta (2-0)

, at the Giuseppe Meazza stadium, on the penultimate day of the competition.

The Rossoneri team is only one point away of his nineteenth league title, which he has not won for eleven seasons, since it was imposed in the campaign 2010-2011. On the last matchday he visits Sassuolo, who have nothing at stake.

Stefano Pioli’s team did not fail despite the pressure Inter, second in the table, puts on them . Atalanta, in addition, did not give any facility. He has a European position at stake. It is eighth in the table, level on points with Fiorentina, which marks the continental zone, and one with Roma, in the Europa League position.

Despite dominance, Pioli’s team could not beat Juan Musso, while the visitors looked for their options on the counterattack. He managed to break Atalanta’s resistance in the second half, in the minute 58, with a good individual action by the Portuguese Rafael Leao after receiving a ball from Junior Messias. The Portuguese faced the visiting goal and defined well against Musso.

Sentenced the clash in another personal move starring Theo Hernández. A great goal from French winger, prodigy of power who took the ball in his field and started a race without brake until he reached the area and crossed the ball to the Atalanta goal.
