Champions League night for Atalanta Bergamo, with a full Gweiss Stadium and a magical performance from Gasperini’s team. It ended 5-0, but it could have easily been 10-1.
Retegui opened the scoring in the 12th minute after a pass from Zappacosta, so that in the second half Pasalic and, later, De Ketelaere, Lookman and Brescianini had fun with the Austrian defense. Atalanta also had two goals canceled by VAR, but also 4-5 other great scoring opportunities.
Splendid atmosphere in the full stands, with fans of the two teams competing in stage designs and messages.
Atalanta hopes for a place in the top 8, a place that would ensure their direct presence in the round of 16. Everything depends on the game of results, but also on the last match. The Bergamasci travel to Catalonia for another big match, against Barcelona, after facing the holders and multiple Champions League winners, Real Madrid, in December.
