The final of Europa League “it will be a fantastic event for the history of Atalanta and for a club like ours which doesn’t have very large numbers and which finds itself playing a final like this where we will have everyone’s attention. The example of Atalanta can give hope to football, which is beautiful precisely because of meritocracy and not because of genetically acquired rights”. The Atalanta coach said it Gian Piero Gasperini at the press conference after hat-trick to Olympique Marseille which earned them the chance to reach the Europa League final. “It is a good omen for all the teams that are not in the first tier, very important goals can be achieved without necessarily having numbers which today seem the most important thing. We need to have audiences, numbers, necessarily Super Leagues… The example of Atalanta, however, can give hope to many other teams, football is beautiful for meritocracy rather than for genetically acquired rights” added Gasp.
Gasperini’s words after Atalanta-Marseille
“My first thought immediately went to the final, even if in the meantime we have a few important games to play. There are many matches we play, it’s not easy to always play them as you would like, there are matches that are done better than other matches where you struggle more, even in Salerno, thank goodness we won, this match was definitely a better match . There was a city around us, there was fibrillation waiting, everywhere we turned in Bergamo it was felt, when there are these emotions and these energies it is clear that the players perceive them. It was known that it was the decisive and special match, they also interpreted it with energy in the best way” explained the technicianAtalanta.
