Who assisted Scalvini in the away fixture?
Højlund
After a bumpy start at the Olimpico stadium, Atalanta took the lead on 35 minutes: Rafael Toloi’s long pass found Højlund who, after a superb covering to evade both Ibanez’s and Smalling’s pressing, hit the final pass to Scalvini from the edge of the box where Atalanta’s #42 slotted his right-footed shot into the top corner after taming the ball with his left foot.
Below, the highlights of the black-and-blue sack of Rome:
The last time an opponent was shown a red card happened in a match against Roma.
True
The last time our opponents ended the match one-man down happened in the Roma-Atalanta fixture played on the 5th of March 2022, when Henrikh Mkhitaryan was shown the red card in the final minutes at the Olimpico stadium. Nonetheless, Atalanta was outnumbered in their turn on the grounds of Marten de Roon being shown the red card one minute prior. To actually find a match where Atalanta was last seen with an extra player, one needs to go all the way back to the Atalanta 2-0 Benevento played on the 12th of May 2021 – when Caldirola was sent off in the 82nd minute.
Only one previous encounter was played on a Monday, which was the outcome?
3-3
The last and only Atalanta-Roma match occurring on a Monday night was played back on the 27th of August 2018 and culminated in a 3-3 draw: with Roma taking the early lead courtesy of Pastore with a back-heel banger, Atalanta turned the match around as early as in the 1st half with, respectively, Castagne scoring the equaliser and Emiliano Rigoni breaking the tie with a brace; in the 2nd half, Florenzi and Manolas performed a counter-comeback to level the playing field once more.
In Atalanta 2-1 Roma played on 15/2/2020, Pašalić scored __ seconds after being subbed in.
19
After Roma took the lead in the first half courtesy of Edin Dzeko with a dig from outside the box, in the second half the black-and-blue performed an agonic turnaround with a lightning one-two. Starting off with the equalizer scored by Palomino (in a chain reaction starting from a Gomez corner, followed up by Djimsiti’s brush and culminating with Jose slotting the ball in with a split), it was just a matter of seconds before the black-and-blue lead: namely 19, as Pašalić, right after being subbed in, thumped a right-footed shot past Pau Lopez and into the top corner to give Atalanta the three points.
