On October 31, Beijing time, in the 10th round of Serie A, Atalanta defeated Monza 2-0. Under the leadership of Gian Piero Gasperini, Atalanta has achieved a four-game winning streak in the league.
After the match, Gasperini said, “This was a tough game, especially with Monza’s performance putting us under pressure. Although they didn’t cause us too much trouble, we still had a difficult time in the first half. We faced some challenges in the forward positions, particularly on the wings. I am happy for Zaniolo, as this was his first important match. This game was very, very important for us.”
He continued, “Our squad is very stable, especially in defense and midfield, where we showed solidity and consistency. Obviously, it would be great if every game went as smoothly as against Verona or Genoa. Tonight, all the substitutes who came on made significant contributions.”
In the post-match interview, Gasperini also discussed the upcoming challenges, “We have now secured a string of impressive victories, which has helped us climb up the standings. Of course, we have also slightly benefited from a favorable schedule. Up next, we have some crucial matches, such as the one against Napoli, and the Champions League match on Wednesday.”
