Atalanta-Cagliari ends 0-0 and it's a great point for the rossoblù, who continue the victory against Parma. The match is certainly not exciting, but in the 90th minute Caprile is decisive with a feat on the substitute Vanja Vlahović.
A nice play by Zortea in the area for Piccoli, with a decisive closure by Ruggeri in the area, seems to start an interesting first half. Instead of actions throughout the first half there are very few, most of the time with crosses to the center thwarted by the defense (rossoblù) . In the 29th minute a free kick from the edge, Pašalić touches it to Retegui and his shot is blocked by the defense for a corner.
To see a shot on target you have to wait until the 35th minute : Caprile's mistake on the clearance, Atalanta's recovery high and offload to Samardžić whose left-footed shot from twenty meters forces the Cagliari goalkeeper to make a plastic catch. At the 39th minute corner from the right, the ball is cleared by the defense and Tolói's right-footed shot is high.
Resumption with De Ketelaere replacing Samardžić. At 56', still without chances, Gasperini takes off Cuadrado and the never dangerous Retegui (obviously thinking about the Champions League) for the very young Palestra and Vanja Vlahović. Cagliari makes its presence felt at 58', Adopo serves Deiola twenty meters away for a right-footed shot not far from the top corner . Atalanta also brings in Éderson, for Brescianini, while Nicola again at 67' makes the first change with Coman for Felici.
Cagliari dangerous for the first time in the match in the 71st minute: Zappa crosses for Coman, Atalanta defense that clears in difficulty and on Deiola's shot there is a decisive deflection to send the ball to the corner . Same story, after the corner, for the conclusion of the former Zortea to cross with the right.
Big chance in the 85th minute for Atalanta: cross from the right, Zappa parries it short, De Ketelaere kicks from a central position and touches Mina on his left foot just enough to make the ball go out of the goal . Final push by the Bergamo team, with Caprile who in the 90th minute works a miracle on a right-footed shot from Vanja Vlahović. From the corner, taken short, cross from Ruggeri and Hien heads it in forcing the rossoblù goalkeeper to save. At the start of the four minutes of injury time, Vlahović again serves Pašalić, who curls the ball out to Caprile who is this time immobile. The match ends in the 95th minute.
