Luis Muriel’s scored a first half brace for Atalanta to be a Crotone side that are still winless in Serie A after 6 matches. Atalanta needed the win to bounce back from the defeat against Sampdoria in the previous round.
The good news for Inter Milan is that they found the goals to come back from 2-goals down and avoid a defeat at home to Parma.

Cristiano Ronaldo returned to action with a brace (includes the game winning goal) against recently-promoted Spezia. A first league victory for Juventus in three matches.
