Manchester United vs. Atalanta: assistance from Duván Zapata for the 1-0 scored by Ilicic in the Champions League | VIDEO

The keys to 1-0 Manchester United vs. Atalanta: the appearance of Duván Zapata for the assistance, the precision of Josip Ilicic and the clear complicity of David De Gea. In this way, the local team went ahead in the commitment of the fourth day of group F of the Champions League.

A couple of weeks ago, the Bergamo club attended the imposing Old Trafford stadium and hit the European giant twice in 45 minutes. Beyond the fact that the story was not favorable for those led by Gian Piero Gasperini (they lost 3-2), the script was no different in the rematch at the Gewiss colossus.

Atalanta went without complexes to attack Manchester United. This is how captain Remo Freuler had the ball on his feet in the opposite field and then filtered the ball between the line of the shuttlecocks and the defenders. There was a detour in Scott McTominay and the balloon was served for Duván Zapata.

Right away, the Colombian beat winger Aaron Wan-Bissaka in power and speed. After entering the goal, thanks to a feint, the forward raised his head to locate Ilicic free of mark near the crescent of the large area.

The next thing was the shot over the second post by the attacker from Atalante. De Gea guessed the opponent’s intention and flew to that side. However, the Spanish could not contain and the ball slipped through his arms to allow the opening of the scoreboard in the Champions League commitment.
