What did coach Gasperini say when Atalanta "destroyed" Bayer Leverkusen?

This morning (May 23), Atalanta won 3-0 against Bayer Leverkusen to win the 2023/2024 Europa League. This is a historic championship for the Italian team as well as coach Gian Piero Gasperini.

Speaking to the media after the final, coach Gian Piero Gasperini said: “I think we have made history with an extraordinary victory. We have reproduced the performance against Sporting Lisbon and Liverpool.

Sporting Lisbon won their league, Liverpool were top of the Premier League when we got there and Bayer Leverkusen dominated the Bundesliga. I have to thank my players, their performance was incredible.”

In the match against Bayer Leverkusen, Ademola Lookman became the hero when he scored a hat-trick, talking about Atalanta's tactics, coach Gian Piero Gasperini said: "To win the final, we have to attack because defending is not enough. The way we play is the most important thing, we deserve the championship. Actually, winning the Europa League is an extraordinary achievement."

In addition to winning the 2023/2024 Europa League, Atalanta has the opportunity to help Serie A make history by winning 6 places in the European Cup 1 next season. According to the announcement from UEFA, Serie A will have 5 places in the European Cup 1 in the 2024/2025 season.

Therefore, Atalanta won the Europa League and got a place. Therefore, if this team finishes 5th in Serie A 2023/2024, the 6th team will get a place to participate. In case Atalanta enters the top 4, Serie A will still have only 5 places to participate in the European Cup 1 2024/2025.
