Atalanta making history winning the UEFA Europa League Final game against Bayer Leverkusen on Wednesday 22 May 2024 at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin, Ireland. Coach Gian Piero Gasperini wins the Europa League, the historic first for Atalanta. After a one-sided first half with Atalanta unstoppable and with a superhero Lookman, in the second half Leverkusen’s timid initial reaction was not enough. The Orobic team waits, defends, gains ground and finally closes it out, in the 75th minute, with the undisputed MVP of the match: Ademola Lookman again.
Bayern Leverkusen have faced Atalanta on two occasions in European competitions, with the Italian team winning both legs of the 2021/22 Europa League round of 16. Only against Inter (three defeats in three matches) have Bayer played more matches among the teams against which they have always lost in major European competitions.
🖤💙 We are all Atalanta fans celebrating this prestigious and their first historical Europa League Trophy. @Atalanta_BC
