Knowing that a win against Atalanta would take them closer to the title as they head into the final weekend when they take on Sassuolo.

It was gathered that Ibra seemed to be carried away by the chants from the fans as he was hitting the window of the team bus as he was soaked up with the proceedings.

His strength was too for the window that he smashed it with his bare hands as the glass splattered all over the place.

There were no injuries reported following the incident and the whole drama even paid off on the pitch courtesy of goals from Rafa Leao and Theo Hernandez as they secured the maximum three points.

It was AC Milan’s fifth consecutive win as they are now unbeaten in the Italian topflight in their last 15 matches.

Coach of the side Stefano Pioli said via Joe:

“I had to say goodbye to the fans, it's a year that excites me. It's not over yet, we must be determined and calm.
"I am very satisfied, because we played against a strong team that created difficulties for us. We did well in the attacking phase and we found solutions.
“We never lost our clarity and we always believed in it, so the victory is a well-deserved reward.”
