L'Atalanta wins in Parma and hooks Inter

At the Stadio Tardini, Atalanta beat Parma 3-1 on the road in the Saturday evening match of the 13th day of Serie A  hooking Inter at the top of the standings.

La Dea goes ahead after 4 minutes: cross from the left in the area by Bellanova, Retegui arrives and heads the ball into the box, the goal è validated after the Var check. On 10’ Lookman also scores, but forò è in offside and the goal is annulled. Earlier, the Ducals had made an appearance with Bonny whose right-footed shot ended just outside.

On 16’ and 19’ again Retegui misses two chances: first he smashes a header putting it out, then Ederson crosses low to the national team’s center forward who sends high from a very favorable position. On 33’ guests still close to 2-0: Bellanova’s cross and Looman’s header out by a whisker.

The 2-0 actually comes at 39’: triangle Ruggeri-Lookman-Ruggeri, cross to the far post where Ederson stretches and puts in the net. On 44’ hosts on a counterattack with Cancellieri serving Bonny, first-intention shot repelled in the dive by Carnesecchi, who repeated himself a minute later on Valeri.

Resume. At 49’ Parma shortened the distance: Mihaila in depth for Cancellieri who turned, broke free of the mark and sent a left-footed shot under the crossbar. Gasperini within a minute suffers two cautions for protests and then at 54’ is kicked out by referee Manganiello.

On 57’ it was the Emilians who protested a touch of Toloi’s arm in the box on Valeri’s cross but the referee signaled that the ball first hit the legs of the guests’ defender. At 72’ another goal disallowed for offside to Lookman but at 75’ the Nigerian finally scores regularly just a step away from the goal on Cuadrado’s cross. È the final seal to the result.
