Atalanta Bergamo meets Bayer Leverkusen in the Europa League final this Wednesday (9 p.m.) in Dublin to try to win the first European title in its history. So far, no team has managed to overthrow Bayer this season, who remain undefeated after 51 matches in all competitions. But Italian coach Gian Piero Gasperini has confidence in his team to be the first team to achieve the feat of dominating Xabi Alonso’s men.
Gian Piero Gasperini (coach of Atalanta Bergamo), before the Europa League final against Bayer Leverkusen this Wednesday: “From a mental and psychological point of view, we are ready. Especially since we secured qualification for the Champions League on Sunday (Atalanta qualified after their victory against Lecce 2-0).
Personally, I am disappointed not to see Marten De Roon play (the Dutch midfielder was injured against Juventus in the Italian Cup final), because of his value on the pitch. He deserved a final. He gave so much to Atalanta, I regret losing him for our most important match. It’s another match, another final, another very prestigious trophy. We will have no excuse. »
