(Reuters) - Franco Brienza scored with the last kick of the game, a superb 25-metre strike, to give Atalanta a shock 2-1 home win over AC Milan on Sunday and pile more pressure on the losing side's beleaguered coach Clarence Seedorf.

Mario Balotelli twice hit the woodwork, once in each half, for Milan in a match marred when a banana was thrown on to the pitch by the home fans, landing near Milan's Guinean fullback Kevin Constant.
