🔥Atalanta stun Juve, Spalletti curse, Dea in Champions League semis🏆 | OneFootball

Atalanta gifts itself a dream night at the NewBalance Arena by eliminating Juventus from the Coppa Italia in the quarter-finals with a decisive score of 3-0. Now the Goddess awaits the winner of Bologna-Lazio in the semi-finals. For the third consecutive time between Napoli and Juve, Luciano Spalletti does not make it into the Top Four.

The match was balanced in terms of chances, but there was no contest in terms of effectiveness and competitive spirit. In the first half, Gianluca Scamacca opened the scoring with a contested penalty, and in the final moments, Kamaldeen Sulemana and Mario Pasalic sealed a legendary 3-0 victory.

😲 ATALANTA DOMINATES, 3-0 PASALIC

At the 85th minute, Atalanta scores the 3-0. Bernasconi recovers the ball from an inaccurate pass by Bremer, the ball reaches Krstovic who sets up Mario Pasalic's precise diagonal shot.

It's the fifth assist for the Montenegrin, who always makes the most of his playing time, and the fifth goal for the Croatian midfielder.

🔥 THE SUBSTITUTES MAKE THE DIFFERENCE: BELLANOVA FOR SULEMANA, 2-0

At the 77th minute, Atalanta takes advantage of Juventus' confusion after Spalletti's substitutions and scores the second goal.

A beautiful run down the right wing by the returning Bellanova. Krstovic misses his low cross, but Kamaldeen Sulemana beats everyone to the far post to make it 2-0. It's the third goal of the season for the forward, who seemed on the verge of leaving in January. Raffaele Palladino gets both assists and goals from his substitutes.

😡 BOOS FOR KOOP

Fifteen minutes from the end, Luciano Spalletti brings on the former player Koopmeiners and the reception at the NewBalance Arena is harsh.

The entire stadium boos the Dutchman and chants against him start.

❌ JUVE CREATES BUT WASTES, MCKENNIE DOESN'T DELIVER

In the second half, Juventus applies great pressure but fails spectacularly in the final 10 meters.

Usually relentless in front of the goal, McKennie misses a lot today. After failing to shoot from close range in the first half, he mishits from a good position in the second half on a good assist from David and then fails to reach an open goal on a pass from an enterprising Boga at the 73rd minute.

🔄 DEBUT IN JUVE SHIRT FOR BOGA

At the 64th minute, Luciano Spalletti decides to debut Jeremie Boga. The winger comes on for Gatti to make Juventus more offensive. Kalulu takes over the role of the right-back.

😱 ATALANTA PENALTY, BREMER MAKES IT 1-0

At the 25th minute, with the help of VAR, referee Fabbri awards a penalty for a handball by Bremer. The distance from Ederson is minimal and the arm does not extend to seek the ball, but the intervention is deemed foul by the referee after review.

Spalletti's position is clear, as intercepted by microphones: "It's the ball that hits Bremer's arm."

Gianluca Scamacca steps up to the spot, deceives Perin with a sharp and powerful shot, and puts Atalanta ahead. It's the ninth goal of the season for the striker, the sixth from the penalty spot.

😬 DOUBLE CHANCE FOR CONCEICAO, PORTUGUESE HITS THE CROSSBAR

At the 20th minute, Juventus has its first real opportunity, which is a double chance: both fall to Francisco Conceicao. First, the Portuguese forward takes advantage of a long throw-in by McKennie and aims at Ahanor, managing to shoot. Carnesecchi makes a great save coming out low.

A few seconds later, the winger tries again on his own. He starts from the right and cuts in on his left foot from the edge. His curling shot hits the crossbar.

😢 CHIELLINI: "WE WANTED A FORWARD"

Giorgio Chiellini also made some statements to SportMediaset before the match.

"We are aware that it will require great intensity, it's a quarter-final of the Cup and a significant match. We scoured the market and looked for many situations that could help us compensate for Vlahovic, who will return in March. We need to understand how he will return, with him we wouldn't have needed anything.

We are happy with those we have and the confidence they are gaining, we expect that even those who are playing less now can help us. Miretti has given a lot after his injury, now we hope Gatti will do the same. I hoped Spalletti would have such an impact, although I thought it would take him longer.

💥 PERCASSI: "WE DIDN'T THINK WE'D GET RASPADORI"

Atalanta's CEO Luca Percassi spoke to SportMediaset before the match.

"We are expecting a great match in a fantastic setting. Football doesn't live on history, every time you have to do everything right to be competitive. With the recently concluded market, we have strengthened despite the departures.

We didn't think we could get Raspadori, but the opportunity arose, and we seized it. We are happy that he chose the Atalanta project. We know we have to earn everything point by point, our dimension is provincial. The ownership has supported us in the new technical project."
