BERGAMO (ITALPRESS) – Palladino’s Atalanta also wins against Naples and continues its rebound towards the noble positions of the championship. At the New Balance Arena, the 2-1 final comes thanks to a super second time played by the Bergamo training. The afternoon goals are all made of head and carry the signatures of Beukema, Pasalic and Samardzic. The Wednesday return race against Borussia Dortmund inevitably affects Palladino’s choices, which, among others, decides to keep Scamacca, Ederson and Djimsiti at rest.
Despite a better start of the Atalanta, Naples with cynicism unlocks the result at 18′, taking advantage of the first real opportunity from goal. On the punishment beat by Gutierrez from the right limit of the area, svetta Beukema che di testa infila Carnesecchi for 1-0. Palladino’s defensive line works badly, giving too much freedom to the Dutch central. At 22′ the doubling of Naples, signed by Alisson Santos, is canceled for outage. The former Sporting is also dangerous at 47′, when his left is paradoxed by a careful Carnesecchi.
A penalty kick was revoked by the Var in the fractional final. The contact between Hien’s knees and Hojlund was initially found to be flawless by Chiffi: from the replay, however, emerges as the touch is mild and as the Danish specifically seeks contact. The same players are protagonists of another doubtful episode in the opening of shooting. It does not convince the decision of the Padua whistle that cancels the network of 2-0 Gutierrez, revising a foul doubt of theassistman Hojlund on Hien. Also thanks to the entrances from the bench of Scamacca, Samardzic and Bernasconi, the Atalanta grows with minutes until you find the network of the peer. At 61′, on the corner of Zalewski, Pasalic steals time for opposing defense and beats Milinkovic for 1-1. Shortly after the Nerazzurri take advantage of a powerful Scamacca shot from inside the area, parato da un reactive Milinkovic. However, compared to the first time, guests struggle to hold ball and suffer the ardour of Bergamo. At the 81′s, the goal is worth the overtaking: on the cross from the left of Bernasconi, Samardzic takes the elevator on the newly-income Olivera and signs 2-1.
With these three points, the Atalanta remains seventh with 45 points, but at equal points with Como and less than two from the fourth place occupied by Rome (in the field at 20.45 against Cremonese), with the Giallorossi who could in turn hook Naples, third at 50.

MANNA PROTESTA “GOL ANNULLATO A GUTIERREZ IMBARAZZANTE”
“The 2-0 goal is incommentable. There is no foul or contact. I don’t understand how the referee whistles. For me there was not even a control at the Var, because the game is resumed immediately. It was embarrassing: we could go on 2-0 in Bergamo and the game would change. We are experiencing a difficult season full of accidents.” Giovanni Manna, a sports director of Naples, told the microphones of Dazn, after the 2-1 defeat against the Atalanta. “You get to make a match of this thickness in Bergamo during a complicated vintage and then we see you cancel a goal like that – Manna insists on the network canceled by Chiffi to Gutierrez for a alleged Hojlund foul on Hien –. What’s Var doing? During the year episodes can be drawn, but today’s is embarrassing. We’re playing Champions and we’re canceled a goal like that. This is not fair and is not football: every week there is someone complaining. On the rigor the Var recalled the referee, after why not? ”
