Gian Piero Gasperini’s words after Atalanta-Lecce

Atalanta closed its 2023 season in the best possible way by beating Lecce 1-0 thanks to a goal scored by Ademola Lookman. At the end of the match, the Orobici coach Gian Piero Gasperini, among other topics discussed at the microphones of "DAZN", wanted to take stock of the Dea team&#39s achievements during this calendar year.

"Our 2023 è was extraordinary, we finished fifth last year and returned to the Europa League, despite the increasingly balanced league and regardless of what è happened to Juventus. After today’s victory I can say that we are im a good position in the standings. Lately we have had to deal with several injury problems, but we still managed to perform well. This team still has a lot of room for growth" began the coach of the orobici.

" I hope to always see this desire to fight on every ball. The most important thing for us è to take the field with the right attitude, as we did today. In this first part of the championship we have managed to bring home nine wins, but to make the final leap in quality; we will have to be able to find more continuity in attack. Scamacca è returned today and did some good things and some less, he has to find his condition again. Unfortunately we will lose Lookman for a while' but up front we have several good alternatives" added the "Dea&quot coach;.

"We played a good game again today. In the first half we played a lot in their half of the field, but it was not easy to play against Lecce, which è a team well organized in the defensive phase and able to bother everyone. Our merit è was to have a lot of patience and not let them have too many chances. I think that in the globality of the match the result is fair" concluded Gian Piero Gasperini.
