Atalanta, Gian Piero Gasperini has one regret.

Gasperini’s words

Gian Piero Gasperini spoke after the defeat to Real Madrid: "I think we had the confidence and the feeling that we could create problems for Real Madrid, if we managed to express ourselves for long stretches of the match. We had enough confidence of that, è it is essential to be very effective and be good at scoring, c’è missed the goal, we saw that in Dublin. Then whoever goes ahead has huge chances ".

"The absences? That Real Madrid is undoubtedly strong, that they deserved then to win in the final game becauseé s’è spread out, they then had the situations to score an extra goal. The fact remains that finals are like that, had we managed to go ahead we would have had many more chances in the ninety minutes, if I have to regret something. Unfortunately Scamacca è broke his ACL, Scalvini also, Koop we know. Those who played tonight did so with great merit, they are all to be commended. We as a team è lacked the cynicism of the finals, we played it better than the Italian Cup final. Dublin taught us something. We had the feeling that with a little’ cynicism… At some point it was even within our reach”.

"Ancelotti? I can only renew all the esteem I have for him, the match tonight had several folds. Real deserved the victory, we for an hour of the game had to move the game to our side, the opportunity was very tasty".
