The first half of Milan-Atalanta was decided by a penalty kick that Orsato awarded to the Bergamo team after consulting the Var. The subject of the On Field Review was the contact of Olivier Giroud on Emil Holm. The impact was initially not considered a foul, but then, after going to the side of the field, he decided to award the penalty. From eleven meters, Teun Koopmeiners took the kick, shooting hard and central, scoring the temporary 1-1.

What happened
At the 40th minute, Atalanta was in the opposing area for a corner kick. The ball arrives at the first post where Holm pops out, not coordinating well, but when he shoots, he is hit by a kick from Giroud. The Frenchman, in an attempt to get the ball, only hits the right outside of Atalanta's player. Orsato initially does not whistle the foul, but then goes to the Var where, in a few seconds, he evaluates the Frenchman's intervention as irregular.
The other episode
At the beginning of the match, there were some controversies from the Milan players who were asking for a penalty kick for hand touch in the area. Leao's cross is intercepted by Holm in the area and, according to the Rossoneri, with the arm. As confirmed by Luca Marelli, the limb of the former Spezia was attached to the body and the distance between the two was too short.
