Atalanta reaches Juventus in the Italian Cup final: Fiorentina defeated with a heavy 4-1.
Mission accomplished forAtalantawhich erases the first leg defeat in the second leg of the semi-final of Italian Cup: heavy 4-1 inflicted on Florentine and last act in your pocket. Juventus will be waiting for Koopmeiners and his teammates on May 15th.
Ball possession is a prerogative of Italiano’s men, who are far too smoky: unlike Atalanta who instead try to capitalize on every little opportunity to the maximum with rapid, vertical football.
This is how the 1-0 action developed by Koopmeiners, a little lucky in the rebound which puts Mandragora at a disadvantage and allows the Dutchman to break the deadlock. The ‘Goddess’ also found the second goal with a stone from the edge of Scamacca, canceled out by a previous stomp from Koopmeiners against Beltran at the start of the action.
The amount of chances smiles on the hosts, who are always dangerous with the Dutchman, De Ketelaere and Ruggeri, all flirting with doubling their lead. And Fiorentina? After an inspiration from Belotti in the early stages, the Viola’s proposal is impoverished and there is only room for protests: in the sights of the Tuscans a contact between Carnesecchi and Nico Gonzalez in the Nerazzurri area, considered a normal game dynamic by La Penna and from the VAR.
The second half opens with bad news for Fiorentina: a red card directed at Milenkovic, guilty of having interrupted a clear scoring opportunity with a trip to Scamacca near the edge of the area.
However, the man less does not discourage the Viola, scoring with those you don’t expect: Martinez Fourth (who took over from Belotti) puts things back in order with the house’s strong point, the header. However, the guest’s joy lasts just seven minutes: just enough to Scamacca to bring down the ‘Gewiss Stadium’ with another gem, this time regular.
De Ketelaere has the chance to close the score but he wastes it, unlike Lookman And Pasalic which at the end give the last act of the Italian Cup to the ‘Goddess’. In Rome, however, there will be no Scamacca, who has received a warning.
