La Viola was intent on changing that as the home side took a lead in the 28th minute of the game. Lucas Martinez Quarta opened the scoring from a corner kick.
However, 10 minutes later Napoli leveled the scoring after Insigne’s saved penalty fell kindly for Lozano in the penalty area. Amir Rahmani scored the winning goal for the table-toppers five minutes after the restart as he headed home Zielenski’s delivery from the free-kick.

Sandro Tonali and Rafael Leao added two more goals in the second half. As a result, Milan was in a comfortable 3-0 lead going late in the game. However, Atalanta gave Milan a scare as Duvan Zapata’s 86th-minute penalty and Pasalic’s stoppage-time goal pulled Atalanta back within touching distance. But Gasperini’s men ran out of time to get anything out of the game. Milan is still unbeaten in the league along with Inter Milan and Napoli and sits in second place.
