CARNESECCHI 7.5
Impeccable and focused from start to finish, his performance is textbook. The intervention on Anguissa in the first half was only the prelude: in the second half he was prodigious on Buongiorno, demonstrating the reflexes and instinct of a champion. He blocks every Neapolitan attempt with an almost disarming confidence, always being ready, almost as if he were an octopus with tentacles ready to grab every ball.
DJIMSITI 7
Reliable like few others, he launches into a risky intervention on Politano in the area, a gesture that reveals his great confidence. He erects an impassable wall in front of his goal, leaving very little space for opposing attackers. This year he has shown that he has once again raised the level of his game, giving one of the best performances of his Bergamo career.
HE 7.5
An uncertain start, with a ball given to the opponents that could have cost them dearly. But he recovers immediately, showing incredible determination. From that moment on, he dominated Lukaku, blocking him on every occasion and making any offensive maneuver impossible. A Swedish wall performance, one of those that leaves its mark.
COLASINAC 7
Grit and heart in every intervention. Napoli’s attack is fearsome, but he never lets himself be intimidated, intervening with the right competitive malice. His experience can be seen in every play. Dal 70′ KOSSOUNOU 6.5 – Enters with the same intensity, offering a concrete hand in defense. He also finds space for a chance that could have closed the game.
ZAPPACOSTA 7
The duel with Kvaratskhelia seemed like a titanic undertaking, but he doesn’t hold back. With a tight and decisive marking, he limits every initiative of the Georgian. Not only does he defend, but he also allows himself some offensive outings, demonstrating uncommon tenacity and determination.
DE ROON 7
A warrior in the middle of the field. Despite a few small errors, he was a bulwark throughout the match, canceling out every opponent’s attempt with timely interventions. His solidity and record of appearances in Serie A with the Nerazzurri shirt are celebrated with a performance that confirms his leadership.
EDERSON 7.5
A sparkling performance. Under pressure, he becomes a master of dribbling and ball handling, almost as if he hides it from his opponents. In physical duels, especially with Anguissa, he demonstrates all his strength and resistance, remaining determined until the last minute. A match worth remembering.
RUGGERI 6.5
A difficult first half, where some passes did not find the desired precision. But he grows in his handling of the ball as the minutes pass, improving the team’s pace and helping to maintain control of possession.
PASALIC 7
Close to scoring with a header at the end that could have changed the fate of the match, but still protagonist of a solid match. He manages the game, connects the departments and shows great determination, always maintaining mental control over the match.
DE KETELAERE 7
He starts quietly, with some errors in the steps, but grows quickly. His save for Lookman and the opening on the second goal are classy gestures. He almost looks like Ilicic in the open field, he also produces an assist for Pasalic which however doesn’t materialize. Dal 76′ RETEGUI 7 – He takes center stage as soon as he enters: Gasperini had kept him on the bench as a precaution, but with the first useful ball he scored a spectacular goal, his eleventh of the season.
LOOKMAN 8,5
A real sniper. Every ball he touches turns into an opportunity, and he makes the most of it. Two textbook goals, which demonstrate impressive clarity and power. Napoli is forced to double down on him to stop him. Dal 76‘ SAMARDZIC 6,5 – He comes in and immediately demonstrates his talent, orchestrating the action that leads to Atalanta’s third goal.
ALL. GIAN PIERO GASPERINI 8
Indifferent to the “Conte taboo” and the talk of the Scudetto, the Atalanta manager sets up a perfect match. Without fear, the Goddess beats Maradona once again with a clear 0-3, the same victory obtained last year. With 29 goals scored in 11 games, Atalanta continues to grow in intensity and has no intention of stopping here.
