The Viola's number 19 received a magnificent pass from Gonzalez inside the area and just had the job of pushing the ball into the back of the net. Fiorentina in front: 1-0.
Fiorentina manage to get on the score sheet with Castrovilli in the first move of the second half. He receives the ball in the box and shoots over the goal.
Odriozola takes a rehearsed free-kick, but it didn't look so rehearsed... Fiorentina makes a general mistake and, almost, does not give way to a counter-attack.
Fiorentina spend more time in the field of attack, but still look for space. Sottil tries a left footed shot, but the Atalanta defense gets the better of him.
Atalanta posted a picture showing the dressing room ready for the match. The team will play with a white shirt, while Fiorentina (who also posted a picture) will play with the traditional purple, since they are the home team.
