It's a tough time to be a Rossoneri fan.Once giants – AC Milan – are in the middle of a painful, severe crisis that erupted on Sunday night, as they lost at their own ground, the mythical San Siro, to Atalanta.Losing 3-2 means the Rossoneri are now at real risk of missing out on Champions League football next season.🚨😨 Milan lose at home to Atalanta. ❌Their UEFA Champions League spot is at risk. pic.twitter.com/CZcLfI3aND— EuroFoot (@eurofootcom) May 10, 2026 Right now, they're in fifth place with 47 points, the same as Roma, but Roma have a better goal difference. Como are closing in too, so it wouldn't be surprising if the Rossoneri end up in the Europa League instead of the Champions League in a few months.All of this is happening while Milan’s most passionate fans are clashing with the club's board. This tension affected attendance at tonight's game and likely played a role in the painful defeat.Meanwhile, Atalanta finally had something to celebrate, ending their five-game winless streak. Their strong first-half performance gave them a lead that proved crucial. Ederson and Zappacosta put them 2-0 up, keeping the Bergamo side in the race for a spot in the Europa League or Conference League.After Raspadori scored a brilliant goal just after the break, it looked like Milan were headed for a heavy defeat. Despite the tough atmosphere and their own fans booing – Rafael Leao heard it as he left the pitch – the Rossoneri managed to regroup near the end and almost pulled off an incredible comeback.Strahinja Pavlovic scored with a header in the 88th minute, and then Nkunku closed the gap from the spot to just one goal during stoppage time. Fullkrug had a chance to make it 3-3 in the final seconds, but his header missed the left post by just a few inches.The last few games of the Serie A season will decide everything. Still, Milan are just a shadow of what they once were, and it must be tough for their fans to watch this decline, which could also hurt the club financially in the coming months.SERIE A – MATCHDAY 36FridayTorino – Sassuolo 2-1 (0-0)/Simeone 66, Pedersen 70 – Thorstvedt 51/SaturdayCagliari – Udinese 0-2 (0-0)/Buksa 56, Gueye 90+6/Lazio – Inter 0-3 (0-2)/Lautaro 6, Sucic 39, Mkhitaryan 76/Lecce – Juventus 0-1 (0-1)/Vlahovic 1/SundayVerona – Como 0-1 (0-0)/Douvikas 71/Cremonese – Pisa 3-0 (1-0)/Vardy 31, Bonazzoli 51, Okereke 86/Fiorentina – Genoa 0-0Parma – Roma 2-3 (0-1)/Strefezza 47, Keita 87 – Mallen 22, 90+11 pen, Rensch 90+4/Milan – Atalanta 2-3 (0-2)/Pavlovic 88, Nkunku 90+3 pen – Ederson 7, Zappacosta 29, Raspadori 51/Monday21.45: (1.55) Napoli (4.00) Bologna (6.50)***odds are subject to change***
