Hojlund scored, Nerazzurri in Europe- Corriere.it format

Heated confrontation at Gewiss between Atalanta and Verona for the 36th day of Serie A. The Nerazzurri, seventh in the standings at 58 points before the match, without the curve closed due to the racist chants against Vlahovic, win 3-1 and return to the Europe zone, while Verona remain third last at 30, like Spezia engaged tomorrow in Lecce. For now, the verdict for the Cremonese has been postponed, which in the early afternoon was clearly defeated at home by Bologna.

The guests score first, in the 11th minute by Lazovic who controls well a pass from Terracciano in the area and on the edge of the offside he scores diagonally to the left. Atalanta equalized in the 21st minute with a great shot Zappacosta’s rightcast deep by Muriel.

The second half opens with a Montipò’s mistake — protagonist in the first half with an excellent save on Hojlund — who in the 54th minute loses the ball in the small area with Pasalic who steals it, thanks and slips in for the nerazzurri advantage. Shortly after the goal, the first two scorers left the field: Zappacosta tried to resist a blow to his ankle in the first half, Lazovic hurt himself in midfield.

Shortly afterwards Hojlund, who hadn’t scored since 17 March against Empoli, invents a trio with a feat: a beautiful left foot from outside. In the final Hellas is also unlucky with the Sulemana’s crossbar and Gaich’s pole in a matter of minutes.
