With two sumptuous goals against Fiorentina, even if the first was refused, Gianluca Scamacca confirms that he is in great form before facing OM in the Europa League.
Be careful, confident player. Jean-Louis Gasset obviously knows, Gianluca Scamacca will be the man to watch during the Europa League semi-final between Atalanta Bergamo and Olympique de Marseille. Within a very successful collective, the Italian international has regained all his sensations as a goalscorer in recent weeks.
After his failed stint at West Ham, the former Sassuolo player returned to Serie A this summer. His start to the season was average, but Scamacca has been upping his game lately. In 10 matches, he has scored 8 goals.
Scamacca notably contributed to the Dea’s good run in the Europa League, with a goal in the first leg (1-1) and the return against Sporting (2-1), and of course a double during the resounding victory at Liverpool (0-3) in the quarter-finals.
Two cannon shots against Fiorentina
Wednesday evening, the 25-year-old striker shook the net again during Atalanta’s victory against Fiorentina (4-1), which allowed the Lombard club to qualify for the final of the Italian Cup . At the penalty spot, Scamacca placed a sudden acrobatic rebound, which left the Viola goalkeeper without reaction.
In the first period, Scamacca had already fired a first shot, a powerful strike from the edge of the area, right in the top corner. But this goal was refused due to a foul during the action. This still seems like a good warning.
