2 weeks from the end of the Serie A season and the race for the Champions League spot is more open than ever. It was Milan's home loss to Atalanta that changed the game and put Roma and Como in the running for 4th place more than ever.

At the “San Siro” Milan committed hara-kiri and, amidst many disputes, were defeated by Atalanta. The team from Bergamo made a perfect first half, scoring 2 times with Ederson and Zappacosta. Raspadori scored the 3rd goal at the start of the second half after a powerful shot from inside the area, which stopped in the triangle. Allegri's red and blacks woke up very late, Pavlović with a header and Nkunku with an 11-meter penalty softened the defeat somewhat, however, for Milan it remains a match to forget, as it is a defeat that could compromise the entire season of the “Devil”, who are already sharing 4th place, tied on points with Roma.

The capital won a crazy match at Tardini against Parma, where the protagonist of the challenge was Dutch striker Donyell Malen, with a double. After the first-half advantage goal for the yellow and reds scored by Malen, the locals overturned everything thanks to Strefezza and Keita. However, when it was thought that the challenge was going in favor of the Emilians, Gasperini's team overturned everything, first with Rench and then thanks to a dubious penalty awarded by VAR in the 110th minute, scored by Malen. The Dutchman goes to the quota of 13 goals for the season, becoming the best scorer in the history of Serie A, for footballers arriving in the winter transfer market.

Como also dreams of the Champions League. Cesc Fabregas' team managed to defeat Verona by a minimum of 0-1 in the away match. The only goal was scored by Greek striker Anastasios Douvikas midway through the second half, while the Larians secured their first ever European participation. Two years after they were promoted to the elite, Como will now be part of one of the European competitions next season.
