Atalanta were due to host Villarreal last night for a direct battle for second place in the sixth house that will lead to promotion to the last eight of the Champions League, but following a serious snowstorm in Bergamo, the game was postponed to tonight (Thursday).
In the end and a day late, one of the most intriguing meetings in the final round of the home stage of the Champions League started, at the end of which the yellow submarine achieved a dramatic 2: 3 victory against the Italians and as mentioned, qualified for the last 16 stage.
The celebration of goals began already in the third minute, when Arnaut Danguma from Villarreal took advantage of a serious mistake in the Atlanta defense on the way to an easy goal.
Etienne Capo doubled in the 42nd minute, precisely after good minutes from the Italians and Danguma completed a pair in the 52nd minute on the way to 0: 3.
Later Ruslan Malinowski and Duban Spata managed to shrink and stress Villarreal, but eventually the Spaniards join Manchester United in the next stage.
Atlanta will continue its path in the Europa League.
