We needed this Remaining, we made step one and now know an important one nonetheless must be made, however to create this many possibilities in opposition to Atalanta is actually one thing to be pleased with,”
There might’ve been extra objectives, as Marco Carnesecchi made a sequence of outstanding saves on Lautaro Martinez, whereas on the different finish Ederson’s aim was dominated offside.
