Ekdal and Verde's goals were not enough to prevent the Eagles from defeat. At the end of the match against Atalanta, coach Luca Gotti comments on his team's performance as follows:
"Especially in the first half the left chain suffered, they were obviously very good and on several occasions made valuable plays, we were not always punctual in the closures and we paid dearly for this quality of theirs.
I tried to give space to those who have played less so far, but those players I have to put them within a formation that is as competitive as possible. Also because we were facing a team in confidence like Atalanta, against whom we needed to focus anyway on those two/three players who allow you to bring the team up thanks to their qualities. I am referring to the choice of Holm and Nzola, to try to manage the field against Atalanta.
I liked Verde, he made several quality plays, giving his all. Obviously it was not an easy game for our offensive phase, but nevertheless the boy made a sacrifice performance, embellished by the goal.
The initial attitude of the team was very good. After you go down twice in the result there is a risk that you will then take the embarkation, instead the boys were very good at sticking to the game and I say that before the 4-2 I was convinced that we would take it back. Instead, the fourth goal gave Atalanta back that strength that allowed them to close with a result that I don't like.
Esposito has specific characteristics, he has a very good personality and ball handling. I liked his impact on the match, I will then discuss with him on how I see some plays, on what are the preventive positions I want from him, clear that I could not ask everything and immediately from a boy who was making his debut in such a context. In any case, his performance convinced me."
