5) Atalanta 5-0 Milan, 22/12/2019. Who scored the fifth goal?
Muriel
Papu Gomez opened the scoring in the 10th minute with a great play on the left, nutmegging Conti and firing into the far top corner. Atalanta were unleashed in the second half: between the 61st and 63rd minutes, Pašalić and Iličić rounded off the scoring, and the Slovenian again made it 4-0 in the 72nd minute. However, it was Luis Muriel’s turn to wrap things up, skipping past Donnarumma and slotting the ball into an empty net.
