Coppa Italia, Atalanta-Juve 1-2: Chiesa gives the trophy to the Lady – Sport – Football

by admin

Reggio Emilia, 19 May 2021 – The party at the Mapei Stadium is all black and white. There Juventus wins his 14th Italian Cup beating theAtalanta for 2-1. The goal of Church in the second half, with the former Fiorentina elected man of match. Of Kulusevski e Malinkovskyi the other goals of the final. For Andrea Pirlo and his team is the second title of the season after the Italian Super Cup, while for Gigi Buffon is the latest trophy with his beloved Old Lady.

Goddess unleashed at boot

Nothing Dybala O Morata next to Ronaldo, ma Kulusevski. No surprise instead in Atalanta, with Giampiero Gasperini that deploys the couple Malinovskyi-Pessina behind the only tip Zapata. The Colombian striker is irrepressible in the first minutes: on 3 ‘his escape to the bottom generates the opportunity for Palomino, whose shot is rejected by Buffon. Two minutes later the number 91 sets up on his own and with the left almost does not give his team the advantage. It is the Goddess who dictates the pace, frenzied, in this start of the race. Juventus, for its part, tries to keep up with the same aggression, but less quality, and at 24 ‘risks again on Freuler’s diagonal.




Question and answer

On points, Gasperini’s troops deserve it, but the Bianconeri pass. At 30 ‘the contrast on the edge of Cuadrado’s foul on Gosens leads to a rebound in the Atalanta area which he takes advantage of with a masterful left Kulusevski. The reaction of the Bergamo players was not long in coming and at 35 ‘Buffon’s gloves were needed to say no to Hateboer’s pumpkin. The Goddess presses and in the 41st minute he gets even with Malinovskyi, back against the Old Lady. The Ukrainian midfielder’s shot from outside the box was splendid, served perfectly by Hateboer. It is the last emotion of a vibrant and very pleasant first half to be a final.

Juve grows

If Atalanta had been preferred in the opening fraction, at the beginning of the second half Pirlo’s team took the stage. At 47 ‘immediately a danger for Gollini, with the header of McKennie that ends his run just on the bottom. After an insidious free kick by Malinovskyi, saved by the Juventus defense, it’s up to Kulusevski to call into question Gollini with a close touch. The Nerazzurri goalkeeper, on the other hand, must thank the post in the 60th minute, when Church – unmarked by a Ronaldo heel – hits the wood from a very favorable position. The Goddess appears tired and so Gasperini decides to throw both Muriel and Pasalic into the fray.




The Church decides it

The inertia is absolutely favorable to Juventus, who come forward in the 73rd minute: Church, right in the last action before going out, he talks with Kulusevski, enters the area and this time does not forgive Gollini. To defend the new advantage, Pirlo also included Bonucci, who seemed unavailable on the eve of the match. Atalanta desperately tries to catch up with their opponents, but the black and white wall does not collapse and after four minutes of recovery the party of the Lady can start.
