Share

Nigerian star player Ademola Lookman scored twice as Juventus forced Atalanta to a 3-3 draw. The Nigerian gave his side an early lead, but Juve hit back to lead at the break through Angel di Maria’s penalty and Arkadiusz Milik’s volley.

Joakim Maehle equalised after a minute of the second half before Lookman struck again with a fine header. But Juventus levelled when Danilo drove in from outside the area. The result sees Atalanta move up one place into fifth, while Juve, who had slipped down to 10th following the points deduction, are now in the ninth place position.
