“Atalanta is a very successful team, they will be tough”

Despite the good performance against Inter in their last home match, Young Boys are still chasing their first points in the Champions League. After coming close to a draw with the Nerazzurri, the Bernese team this evening (live on Rete Uno) will have to face the second place in Serie A: Atalanta. “The Bergamo players play with man defense differently from other teams – declared the yellow and black coach Joël Magnin – This is a very successful team that also won the Europa League and we can clearly expect a tough and difficult opponent to beat , just as it was the last time.”

Concerns, however, are not lacking even at Atalanta’s home ground: “I expect a difficult match because I saw the match against Inter – commented Gian Piero Gasperini, coach of the Bergamo team – Putting them in such difficulty is not obvious. The Milanese struggled to express themselves as they usually do, so I expect that type of Young Boys.” Furthermore, for the guests, the synthetic grass at the Wankdorf could also cause some problems. “We are not used to this pitch – continued the 66-year-old – in any case we will have to get used to it immediately and quickly because this is the pitch”.
