3 Trivia questions about Salernitana-Atalanta

Answers to our quiz-stories

The home fixture was marked by our historic best of goals scored in a single Serie A match.

True

Matchday 18 of the 2022/23 season is here to stay in the record books of the black-and-blue history. Never before the Atalanta-Salernitana match had the Nerazzurri scored eight goals in a single game. That night, the players finding their scoring ways were, in order of appearance: BogaLookman from the penalty spot, ScalviniKoopmeinersHøjlund, again Lookman and the “ex’s law” striking twice with Éderson and Zortea – both netting their first goal for Atalanta.

How many appearances did Éderson make for Salernitana?

15

After joining the Garnets in the January transfer window of the 2021/22 season, Éderson played a key contribution in staving off relegation nightmares (as the Campanian Club managed to avoid relegation at the eleventh hour) thanks to his many spotless performances (15 to be exact). During his stint, he also scored 2 goals, of which, one netted at the Gewiss Stadium in the 1-1 home draw between Atalanta and Salernitana.

Before last season’s outing, how far back goes our second-last Serie A match at the Arechi stadium?

1948

Excluding their last Serie A promotion in the 2021 season, Salernitana had competed in Italy’s top division on only two former occasions: namely, back in the 1998/99 season, when Atalanta was instead playing in Serie B, and in the 1947/48 season. That season, the two commitments between the Nerazzurri and the Granata (both the home match played in Bergamo and the away fixture held at the Arechi stadium) culminated in 0-0 goalless draws.
