The Dea coach was satisfied with his team’s performance, Bologna capable of making the most of situations
The student beats the teacher in Bergamo in a Atalanta – Bologna finished 1-2Gasperini spoke to the DAZN microphones, initially a little nervous: “We we played a great matchoutside of a blackout in the opening minutes of the second half but even there the reaction was very positive, just in the final ten minutes we lost clarity and inertia but in the ninety minutes Atalanta played a great game. The first half could have ended with something better for us and unfortunately we are losers in the episodesthat of the penalty is quite heavy to digest and in three minutes we threw away a game in which we were certainly putting Bologna in difficulty and we were playing well.”
On Bologna and the analogies with the match against Inter: “Inter are a very strong team, we have opened up the possibility for them too, but tonight we played the game excluding that period and those final minutes in which Bologna closed all the spaces. But the performance beyond the result was of a high level. Bologna’s strength is well known and recognised, but it’s clear that you can’t reverse the trend of a match, that’s how it went but I don’t agree if we’re talking about a different Atalanta. We started very offensively picking them up to prevent them from playing. Once we were ahead we could have made better use of the spaces, but we weren’t able to do so. Unfortunately we are causing too many penaltiessome even in a naive way and this also takes away our results.”
