However, it was this statistic that they did not score a goal, and they were forced to draw 0-0 by the opponents. After this game, Atalanta has suffered two consecutive defeats, as many as eight points behind top Inter. It can be said that Inter has lost the fierce rival of Atalanta on the road to the championship.
Shots 17-1, Atalanta 0-0 and big cold
In this match against Genoa, Atlanta witnessed what a super bus is. Throughout the game, Genoa shrank defensively. Without a single active offense, they have only a pitiful 33 percent of possession, half of Atalanta's. And Atlanta, too, is invincible. In the first half of the match, Zapata on the front line missed two consecutive scoring opportunities. After the game entered the second half, Genoa was more focused on defense, with Destro and Ekuban also participating in the defense.
In addition, Genoa goalkeeper Sirigu played very well in this game. He contributed several wonderful saves in 90 minutes. Let Atalanta's offense come to naught again and again. After Atalanta were forced to draw in this game, they have not won 2 rounds in the league and directly lost 5 points. It can be said that their previous wave of 6 consecutive wins is a pity. Otherwise they have a good chance of joining the title race.
Inter are one less rival in their title race?
With Atalanta losing two minutes in this game, they are already eight points behind Inter at the top of the table. This point difference, Atlanta wants to catch up, has been very difficult. It can be said that they have actually withdrawn from the championship competition now, and Inter has lost atalanta on the way to the championship.
From the current points situation in Serie A, Inter and AC Milan are temporarily in the first echelon of the championship, Napoli and Atalanta have been overturned in the gutters, and if they want to join the first championship group, they not only need to make no mistakes, but also need Inter to drop the chain. But for now, Inter's record is very stable, they have only lost one game this season, and the momentum for the title is very strong.
