Atalanta Beats Juventus: Coppa Italia Semifinalists

In the Gewiss Stadium at home, Atalanta celebrated a clear 3-0 win in the Coppa Italia against Juventus Turin.

First, Ederson fails with a shot (17th), before Juventus misses a huge chance to take the lead: Francisco Conceicao, however, only hits the crossbar (20th).

The momentum shifted in favor of the home team a little later when referee Michael Fabbri awarded a penalty after the video referee intervened. Gianluca Scamacca keeps his nerve and converts safely for a 1-0 lead (27th).

Juventus is pushing for a quick answer, but a header from Bremer misses the target (29′) and Manuel Locatelli also puts the ball next to the goal in injury time of the first half (45′).

Sulemana and Pasalic make everything clear

After the break, Juventus pushed the attack and earned a number of set pieces, including six corners compared to just one for the hosts, but struggled on defense.

Coach Palladino also shows a good hand with his staff: Substitute Raoul Bellanova serves Kamaldeen Sulemana in the final phase, who makes it 2-0 (77th).

The preliminary decision has been made, but the home team goes one better when Mario Pasalic makes it 3-0 after Nikola Krstovic’s assist (85th).

Since a last attempt was parried by Kephren Thuram (90th), Atalanta remained with a clean sheet and moved into the semi-finals of the Coppa Italia.
