After the unexpected and heavy loss a week ago /0:3/ against Atalanta in England, Liverpool tried a reaction in the return match in Bergamo. But it only reached a 1:0 success, which sent the team from Bergamo to the semifinals of the Europa League tournament.

The match started off great for Liverpool, who very early got to a goal. Salah restored the visitors’ hopes of a turnaround with a penalty in the seventh minute.

The penalty kick was awarded for handball on Ruggeri. This goal worried Gasperini’s team and the “reds” quickly came to a new opportunity. Diaz was brought out by Gakpo, but the keeper intervenes Musso prevented the goal.

Just before the break Salah missed an incredible opportunity to double his lead Liverpool. He was brought out magnificently by Gakpo and went out alone against the goalkeeper. The Egyptian tried to transfer Musso, but misses the goal and wastes an excellent chance. Atalanta responded with a goal Koopminers, which was disallowed due to an ambush.

At the beginning of the second half, the team from Bergama reached a dangerous situation in front of Alison after another breakthrough at Dzapakosta, who created many problems for the visitors’ defense. The blow of Ederson, however, did not make it particularly difficult for the Merseyside goalkeeper.

The “Reds” missed another opportunity in the 55th minute. Then Gakpo was brought behind the defense. The Dutchman was in a difficult position and was unable to shoot, followed by a combination and her end shot of Salah, but he was ambushed.

After an hour of play Liverpool seemed to stop believing that a turnaround was possible and the hosts were much more successful in resisting any attempts by the opponent to attack. At the same time, Gasperini’s team organized several good attacks.

However, they ended with an error on the last pass or a weak shot. Koopminers shot at one of them, and in another case Skamaka finished the attack with an inaccurate shot.

Roma also reached the semi-finals, beating AC Milan 2-1 in the tournament’s biggest Italian derby. In the first meeting, the Romans also won 1:0.
