Chaos for Hellas Verona risking to go down to the relegation zone. Hellas winning 1 game this season while losing 6 games and 3 draws. Atalanta is in better position winning 4 games, 3 draws, and 3 lost. The dream for Atalanta to climb towards the top 5 position still a reality while they are doing a good job in Europa League.
It is Atalanta to open the score in the 50th minute, arguably after an error by Caracciolo. It is Remo Freuler to defeat Hellas Verona goalkeeper Nicolas with a right footed shot in the bottom right corner.

Problems for Hellas Verona. Far from reacting, there is Atalanta increasing the score in the 59th minute. Josip Ilicic smacking a left footed shot in the bottom right corner. Way to go for Remo Freuler providing the assist… Well done, Freuler, goal and assist…
