Monza was defeated only towards the end by Atalanta in the Lombard derby. The team of Alessandro Nesta he fights and fights but in the end he has to surrender to goals from Samardzic and Zappacosta. “He proposes an all-or-nothing formation – writes the Gazzetta dello Sport on the red and white coach -. He finds balanced responses. Monza is never a victim, it only gives in at the end”. “Despite the result – analyzes Tuttosport – he can still be considered satisfied with his team’s performance. For seventy minutes he managed to contain Atalanta in Bergamo and conceded little to them”.
This is TMW’s comment: “He can be satisfied with the attitude shown by his Monza, who withstood Atalanta’s attack until midway through the second half. A good sign in view of Milan.”
