Gian Piero Gasperini’s side defeated the Ukrainians 3-0 in the matchday two encounter.
Lookman set-up Berat Djimsiti for the opening goal after 21 minutes.
The Nigeria international then doubled Atalanta’s lead one minute before the break.
The 26-year-old entered the history books as the second Atalanta player to register a goal and assist in a Champions League game.
Zapata achieved the feat twice during his stint with the Bergamo club.
