Comolli rages at referees as Atalanta hailed as pride of Italy | OneFootball

Italy’s sports dailies lead on Juventus’ Champions League anger, with Comolli’s outburst in focus, while Atalanta are celebrated and Europe remains live for several Serie A sides.

Corriere dello Sport frames Juventus as “damaged”, reporting that CEO Comolli railed at UEFA and the referee Pinheiro after their exit, lamenting a red card to Kelly and the official’s limited European experience, and saying he would try to avoid another European ban. It adds that a decisive trip to Roma at the Olimpico awaits.

Tuttosport claims refereeing errors could cost as much as 80m and says red cards influenced matches with Inter and Galatasaray, reflecting Comolli’s fury at what he called injustices behind the Champions League elimination.

La Gazzetta dello Sport places Atalanta among the giants, pointing to possible Champions League ties with Bayern or Arsenal, while Tuttosport hails the Bergamo club as a masterpiece and a source of national pride.

Gazzetta notes Fiorentina lost 2-4 in the Conference League yet still progressed. Corriere says Bologna are ahead and warns Roma are at risk. Gazzetta also trails “Spalletti stays here”, highlights Milan’s push to secure Luka Modric’s approval, and flags debutant Chivu alongside a season echoing Conte’s path.
