Overview
- Milan won 3-0 at San Siro as Christian Pulisic scored from a corner redirected by Adrien Rabiot in first-half stoppage time.
- Christopher Nkunku converted a 48th‑minute penalty given for a Victor Nelsson foul, then scored again after a Luka Modric shot hit the post.
- The double delivered Nkunku’s first Serie A goals after a 14‑match league drought following his €37 million move from Chelsea last summer.
- Inter defeated Atalanta 1-0 in Bergamo through Lautaro Martinez from Francesco Esposito, leaving the standings at Inter 36 points, Milan 35, Napoli 34.
- Coach Massimiliano Allegri praised Nkunku’s response and flagged a busy January, as new signing Niklas Füllkrug watched from the stands and becomes eligible on January 1.
