BERGAMO (ITALPRESS) – Atalanta returns to victory after a month of abstinence, beating Verona 1-0 thanks to the Zappacosta network in the first half. The Nerazzurri climb to 50 points and approach the Europa area. It’s the night, instead, for the Giallorossi who remain at the last place at 18 points and in the company of Pisa.
Palladino, without Scamacca stopped because of a muscle-fascial injury to the right adductor (but the attacker will still respond to the call of Gattuso), sent to the field the best possible formation, with De Ketelaere and Zalewski behind Krstovic. Verona, in desperate search of salvation points, has deployed the classic 3-5-2, with Orban and Bowie as offensive references.
Marten De Roon, before the start of the game, was honored for reaching the 436 matches in Nerazzurri becoming the player with more attendance in the history of the club. The hosts immediately raised the rhythm, Krstovic of the head engaged Montipò, reactive on the deviation of the Montenegrino. He also tried Ederson after a collective action, but the Brazilian slip was intercepted by Akpa Apro.
After a constant and continuous sprinkling on the perimeter came the orobic advantage: Zappacosta, after a series of rebounds, found the angle hole shooting from the edge of the opponent’s area. In the shooting the staircases went close to the peer goal on a poisonous cross of Frese and not hooked by Bowie, Carnesecchi was able to deviate in corner. A few minutes later the atalantine reaction, but the Krstovic pallonetto, on de Ketelaere imbucata, ended on the upper part of the crossing.
The low rhythms allowed Verona to think about the construction of the game, at half an hour Orban, with a turn in the area, has touched the net of the tie. The number 16 gave us a few minutes later, Carnesecchi opposed it once again.
In the next round, after the stop, the Bergamo will play in the house of Lecce while Verona will host the Fiorentina.
