Being eliminated in the Round of 16 of the 2020/21 Primavera TIM CUP left all the Nerazzurri with a heavy heart. «We managed to break the deadlock immediately– the Coach of Atalanta Primavera Massimo Brambilla commented on the game – but then the opponent did well. We regret conceding the goals from dead-ball situations. We were a little bit too superficial at that time. Then we had the occasions for getting back into the game but 3-1 kicked us out and killed off the match».

At the beginning of the second half, the team reacted by creating different scoring opportunities to make it all square: «We made an attempt. In the second half we changed some things to try to level. It is also a matter of luck but we have to congratulate Lazio who played well».

Many players were absent today: someone had to join the First team and someone had injuries. Anyway, it was an opportunity to see other players in the game: «We made many changes compared to the championship match because we play every three days. Of course, we have to work on many things. We know what we have to do. We are all in this together, always trying to have trust in what we are doing. However, there is no doubt that we have to work and we will always do our best».
