She had character, she also needed luck, but the Real Madrid took a huge breath and took a qualifying step! The “queen” took advantage of her players’ mistakes Atalantaescaped the difficult finals of Gasperini’s team and left Bergamo victorious with 3-2.
Somehow, the Madrid team reached 9 points and they have good reason to hope that they will be in the knockouts, while the “Bergamaski” stayed at 11 and are certainly in a safer position.
The game had a blistering pace throughout. Real entered better, found a lead with him Mbappe in the 10th minute, while he had two other big phases for the second goal with the Frenchman and Vinicius. They didn’t find it and Atalanta went up the field, causing them to press. Mbappe left with a problem in the 36th minute and the Italians managed to equalize at the end of the half. Kolazinac was overthrown by Tsoumeni and De Kettelar from the white bullet with a terrible execution he equalized at 1-1.
Real came on very strongly in the second half as well, having one explosive three minutes in which he took advantage of the hosts’ gaps, but also their mistakes. From the carambolas o Vinicius in the 56th minute he gave Madrid the lead again, while three minutes later o Bellingham executed Karnezeky, who had no good reaction for 3-1.
Atalanta did not give up and made their effort. He reduced it with a great shot of his Luqman in the 65th minute and then the match became a rodeo with long phases on both sides. Until the 5th minute of stoppage time came, when the goal was lost for the “Bergamaski” to get the point. Luqman took the action from the left and a terrific turn parallel to the goal, with Reteghi to put his foot, but send the ball into an empty net, over the crossbar. A phase that… relieved Courtois and the Madrid players and disappointed the home team!
