Atalanta, Gian Piero Gasperini believes and sounds the charge

Gian Piero Gasperini’s statements ahead of Marseille

After an away draw in the first leg semifinal, Atalanta will play their chance to clinch the Europa League final at home. On the eve of the second act with Marseille, Orobici coach Gian Piero Gasperini, at the microphones of "Sky Sport", was blunt about his feelings and ambitions.

"In one week we play a big part of the season and we hope to have the chance to play the most important competition of this year. Meanwhile, we know that we will play in Europe again next year and this è a great satisfaction, then we will see in which competition we go. At this point, also by virtue of the result of the first leg, we have confidence and desire to achieve a result that we have never achieved" began the Atalanta coach.

"So many matches soì close together are not ideal but now we cannot think about it, we have to think exclusively about Marseille and focus on this team that è of absolute value. We can with confidence reach a final that would be something historic for us. They make the field factor weigh a lot and tomorrow we will have to do that too. We want and can pass the round" continued the Nerazzurri coach.

"What you feel in the city" è extraordinary, the trepidation, the expectation, è something different than the match. As far as I am concerned, this è an extra charge, all the more so when you get to these appointments you have to present yourself to the best of your ability," concluded Gian Piero Gasperini.
