Atalanta Bergamo lost this Sunday on the lawn of Lazio Rome (3-2, 8th day of Serie A). For its part, Monza beat Salernitana (3-0) and found themselves seventh.

While it had the opportunity to move up the provisional ranking in the event of success, Atalanta Bergamo failed in its mission since it lost this Sunday on the lawn of Lazio Rome (3-2, 8th day of Serie HAS). The visitors quickly got into trouble, conceding two goals in just over ten minutes. But they woke up and first reduced the gap with the break thanks to Ederson (2-1, 33rd) before equalizing following the goal of former OM, Sead Kolasinac (2-2, 63rd). However, this was without counting on the reaction force of the Romans who regained the advantage on a goal from Matias Vecino (3-2, 83rd) and did not let go until the final whistle. In the standings, Bergamo is sixth, three points ahead of Lazio, twelfth.

At the same time, the promoted Frosinone won at home against Hellas Verona. Goals from Reinier (1-0, 45th+1) and Matias Soule (2-0, 66th) allowed him to resist Verona’s comeback attempt, following the reduction of the gap, signed by Milan Djuric (2 -1, 90th+4). Frosinone is eighth in the ranking while Hellas is sixteenth. A little earlier in the afternoon, Monza had defeated Salernitana (3-0), thus achieving a fifth match in a row without defeat in Serie A (two wins and three draws).
