The in-form forward, who is set to be crowned CAF Player of the Year, initially had a goal ruled out for offside in the first half following a VAR review.

However, Lookman would register his name on the scoring sheet in the 75th minute to seal the win for Atalanta.

The 27-year-old has now scored 7 goals in the Serie A, nine goals in all competitions this season, with Atalanta rising to the top of the Serie A standings with 28 points from 13 matches.
