MILAN (AP) — SOLO GOAL

Alejandro “Papu” Gomez scored twice, including a stunning solo effort, to set Atalanta up for a 4-1 win at Sassuolo.

Gomez scored his first in the sixth minute. He picked up the ball in midfield and shrugged off a tackle before threading it through the legs of Sassuolo defender Jeremy Toljan, racing into the penalty area and firing into the roof of the net.

Gomez doubled his tally either side of goals from Robin Gosens and Duvan Zapata as the match was all but decided by halftime. Grégoire Defrel netted a consolation for Sassuolo after the break.

Atalanta hosts Shakhtar Donetsk in its first ever home match in the Champions League on Tuesday, although it is staging its home European matches at San Siro this season.
