It will be the first European final in Atalanta’s history. After an exciting journey: the group won with a match to spare, the elimination of Sporting, then Liverpool, then Marseille. Now, in front, the team that won the German championship, still unbeaten this season among all the competitions in which they have been involved. Coached by a legend of European football like Xabi Alonso. The dream for Gasperini’s team remains that of raising Atalanta’s first international trophy in almost 117 years. To close a season which, whatever happens, will remain in history, between the qualification for the Champions League obtained in the championship and the two finals reached, the Italian Cup and the Europa League.
