14 January 2021Gasperini's Atalanta does not make any discounts in the Italian Cup either, at the 'Gewiss' liquidating Cagliari 3-1 and landing in the quarter-finals, where the winner of Lazio-Parma awaits, the last match of the second round scheduled for next Thursday.



First half dominated by the Orobics who crush behind the Sardinians, too fearful and never incisive (a central free kick from Caligara and nothing more).

Vicario, rossoblù goalkeeper, opposes Miranchuk (twice), Muriel, Gosens (the most difficult save) and Freuler but can do nothing in the 43rd minute on the lightning left of the Russian Miranchuk, served by Muriel.

Narrow result for the hosts: it was practically played at a goal.



Shooting.

Muriel splinters the crossbar on a free-kick, but the kick is strange and at the first real flash Cagliari equalized thanks to Sottil's beautiful percussion ended with a precise cross plate (55 ').

But the 1-1 is short-lived, given that in the 61st minute the Colombian Muriel immediately brings the Goddess forward with a precise diagonal conclusion.

Vicario takes off on Malinoskyi's free-kick (63 ') but a minute later he collects Sutalo's trio, who hits the mark with a close tap-in on a corner action (64').

Twice threatening guests in the final, with Zappa and Sottil again, but the result never changes.
