In the first half, we did very well; I think it’s the best performance until now, De Ketelaere is fundamental to our team
“We were exellent in the first half, we did very well; I think it’s the best performance of this season. The team played good football and had many shots on goal. In the second half, we droped our performance a little but, perhaps due to the heat or maybe due to Thursday’s game. said Atalanta coach Gian Piero Gasperini in an interview with Dazn after the victory against Claudio Ranieris Cagliari.
“Today, we didn’t make any mistakes, we had the right concentration, and we have a defense that generally works well; Florence and Frosinone were exceptions,” he continued.
Regarding De Ketelaere, he said, “In the first half he played the best match with our shirt so far, he made very few mistakes, he always plays with great quality and clarity. He is crucial to our attack, and his assist was delightful.”
Looking ahead to the upcoming fixtures, Gasperini emphasized, “This league gives me the feeling of being very balanced; there can be a lot of congestion in the standings. In some matches, if you’re not at your best, you risk not performing well against anyone. There are strong teams, and in every match, you have to be in the best condition.”
