AC Milan are back to winning ways.The draw against Lecce after the international break certainly came as a surprise, but the Europa League thrashing of RB Salzburg three days ago and today's Serie A clash against Atalanta showed there are no signs of a crisis at San Siro.Despite letting their standards slip and allowing their opponents back into the game after racing into a 3-0 lead, Ruben Amorim's men held on to claim the three points against the 2024 Europa League winners – 3-2.FT: AC Milan 3-2 Atalanta. RUBEN AMORIM IS NOW UNBEATEN IN 7 OUT OF 7 GAMES IN SERIE A THIS SEASON! 🔥🔥🔥 https://t.co/8OQgbyl494— The Touchline | 𝐓 (@TouchlineX) October 18, 2026 Christian Pulisic's early opener was disallowed for offside, but that didn't discourage the Rossoneri. Instead, they kept grinding and finally broke the deadlock in the 24th minute when Goncalo Ramos scored from the spot.Two minutes before the break, Adrien Rabiot doubled Milan's lead, making it look as though La Dea would have little more to do than watch the home side's impressive display unfold.In the 57th minute, Ramos got a chance to complete a brace from the spot, but this time Marco Carnesecchi pulled off a massive save.Real was too strong, but Genoa is no match for RomaThe reprieve proved short-lived, however, as Milan struck again just a minute later, with defender Mario Gila finding the net following a corner to seemingly put the game to bedOne lesson Ruben Amorim will surely want his players to learn is that a game is never over until the final whistle. Milan allowed Atalanta to claw their way back into the contest, with Gianluca Gaetano pulling one back in the 67th minute before Nikola Krstovic struck 15 minutes later to give Maurizio Sarri's men a glimmer of hope.In the end, though, Atalanta fell short and suffered their fourth league defeat, while the Rossoneri climbed to fourth in the Serie A table, four points behind leaders and city rivals Inter.SERIE A – MATCHDAY 7FridayFrosinone – Sassuolo 4-2 (3-2)/Calo 9, Raimondo 26,30,57 – Berardi 15, Thorstved 37/SaturdayVenezia – Napoli 1-0 (0-0)/Adams 49/Bologna – Inter 1-3 (1-1)/Pobega 10 – Thuram 44, Augusto 69, Bonny 83/Roma – Genoa 2-0 (0-0)/Castro 50, Lulli 68/SundayUdinese – Lecce 0-3 (0-2)/Gaspar 11, Ndri 33, Siebert 86/Fiorentina – Como 1-3 (1-2)/Pongracic 42 – Liberali 32, Paz 36, Douvikas 56/Milan – Atalanta 3-2 (2-0)/Ramos 24 pen, Rabiot 42, Gila 58 – Gaetano 66, Krstovic 81/21.45: (1.75) Juventus (3.60) Lazio (4.90) Monday19.30: (2.45) Monza (3.30) Cagliari (2.95) 21.45: (3.00) Parma (3.15) Torino (2.50)***odds are subject to change***
