After the joy following the triumph in the Supercoppa, there is a great disappointment after the setback suffered at the resumption of the championship. “But I have little to reproach the boys for because they gave their soul” commented the Atalanta Primavera coach Massimo Brambilla. “Unfortunately, football is like this, we were punished after the first counter of Cagliari. Then the performance was there, later on, and we also created many chances. Unfortunately, today was a day like this, but the boys had a good match, in my opinion”.

Among the key players of the day there was the Cagliari goalkeeper: the save on Sidibe’s header in stoppage time is a bit of the photograph of the day: “It could have been worth a draw, but also in the first half we had created some interesting situations. If we had taken the lead, it would have been a different game indeed. Then the draw, in the end, would have been extremely deserved, but we must also congratulate Cagliari who held up. And their goalkeeper was truly the most valuable player”.

After the long forced halt, the best recipe to get to the best condition is to keep playing. “We are only in the second game after starting to play again, we know we have to grow and improve, but this is the way. Now we will have games every 3-4 days and it is important to play, because that is what we have been missing for a long time, and these matches are useful for the boys to grow. Today we had a good match, we just lacked the strike to take the lead and then to draw it at the end”.
