Ademola Lookman was a super-sub for Atalanta in their last Champions League match against Sturm Graz.
Atalanta faced a tough first half against Como, conceding the opening goal to Real Madrid’s academy graduate Nico Paz. However, the team regrouped during halftime and emerged with renewed vigour.
Mateo Retegui equalised in the 56th minute and later scored the winning goal, ensuring Atalanta’s return to form and putting pressure on league leaders Napoli.

With this victory behind them, Atalanta’s manager Gian Piero Gasperini expressed optimism about their next challenge.
He noted that the team had two days to prepare and recharge to face LaLiga giants Barcelona, a side they had never encountered before.
Atalanta returned to winning ways at Como.
“We have to recharge our batteries, but the motivation to play against Barcelona won’t be hard to come by,” Gasperini told the club on Youtube.
“They are an amazing team, one we never had the chance to meet before; possibly one of the few or even the major European side we haven’t played against in recent years.”
Gian Piero Gasperini says his team won’t lack motivation to face Barcelona.
The upcoming match against Barcelona represents not just a big challenge but also an opportunity for Atalanta to showcase their capabilities on a grand stage.
With their spirits lifted from the win over Como, Gasperini’s side is ready to embrace this momentous occasion for both the club and its passionate supporters and city.
