An overwhelming victory. Atalanta makes three out of three in the championship, the 6-1 victory against Hellas Verona was decisive: the 0-0 draw with Celtic was canceled thanks to braces from Retegui and Lookman, De Roon and De Ketelaere also scored, the Nerazzurri managed to overwhelm a team that had never played before, rendered harmless from the first minutes of the game.
The words of the Nerazzurri coach
Gian Piero Gasperini was satisfied at the end of the third consecutive victory: “The performance was there tonight and Wednesday – he declared at the press conference -, this evening we were a little more toned and lively in attack. We immediately broke the deadlock, if we had scored a goal against Celtic it would have been a different type of match. This team is doing well, then if we are so precise up front and are generous with assists, we potentially raise our value.”
Immediate reaction
Diametrically opposite situation in the Gialloblù home, with the club deciding not to let Zanetti speak. In his place, sporting director Sogliano, who called everyone together so that everyone can take their own responsibilities. With Lecce we will need a convincing performance, beyond the coach’s future (at the moment it is not in the balance) we will need to move on immediately. Maybe with a victory.
