Atalanta responded with several scoring chances, including opportunities for Isak Hien and Davide Zappacosta. However, the Nigerian international Ahanor had a chance to equalize late in the first half but fired his shot over the bar.
The second half saw AC Milan play with more intensity, with the introduction of Christopher Nkunku and Ruben Loftus-Cheek. The Frenchman almost scored a goal, but his shot was saved by the goalkeeper.
Both teams had chances to win the game, but neither could find the back of the net. The result leaves AC Milan unbeaten in nine matches across all competitions, while Atalanta has now dropped two points in their last two home matches.
Atalanta coach Ivan Jurić has yet to beat AC Milan in his 10 meetings, with a record of four draws and six losses. Meanwhile, his team has won only three of their previous 16 home league games.
