Atalanta Manager Hails Lookman’s Heroic Performance In Triumph Over AC Milan

Gian Piero Gasperini, Atalanta’s manager, showered praise on Ademola Lookman following the Nigerian’s standout role in the club’s exhilarating 3-2 victory against AC Milan on Saturday night at the Gewiss Stadium, where Lookman’s brace proved instrumental.

The 26-year-old winger showcased his prowess by netting Atalanta’s first and second goals of the game, elevating his season’s goal tally to an impressive six. Gasperini expressed his elation at Lookman’s contribution in a thrilling encounter.

“He never did anything, then! Lookman cannot play every game like tonight, or he’d be amazing, but he is doing very well this season,” Gasperini remarked after the game, highlighting Lookman’s consistency and impact throughout the season.

Gasperini recognised the ebb and flow of performance and emphasized the importance of Lookman imbibing the team’s ethos.

“What he must learn from this group is to share the same spirit of determination, and realize when it’s not your day, then you have to work for the team,” he said.

Lookman’s electrifying display against AC Milan solidified his importance within the Atalanta setup, contributing significantly to their triumph in a fiercely contested battle. As Gasperini lauds Lookman’s stellar showing, the winger’s continued contributions are poised to play a pivotal role in Atalanta’s Serie A aspirations.
