Deliverance for Atalanta. In the trough of the wave before the international break, the last winner of the Europa League had no other choice but to win against Fiorentina to slow its fall in the standings. Despite a nightmarish start to the match like Martinez Quarta’s opening goal for the Florentines (0-1, 15th), the Dea immediately reacted through Retegui (1-1, 21st).
If Kean gave the Viola the lead again (1-2, 32nd), the Bergamasques equalized via De Ketelaere (2-2, 45th) before Lookman came out of his box on the edge of the break to reverse the balance of power in favor of his team (3-2, 45th+1). In character, Atalanta Bergamo offered itself a precious victory, a few days before its entry into the Champions League against Arsenal. On the other hand, it was a cold shower for Fiorentina, who fell to 14th position. At the same time, Torino and Lecce parted on good terms (0-0). A bad operation for the Piedmontese club who missed the opportunity to take sole control of Serie A.
