Atalanta Vs Venezia: La Dea Continue Positive Trend, Win 4-0

JAKARTA - Atalanta continued the positive trend when shaving Venezia 4-0 in the match week 15 of the Italian League, Wednesday morning, western Indonesia time.

After making their first away win against Juventus in 25 visits last weekend, Atalanta appeared so confident and effective when they hosted Venezia at the Gewiss Stadium.

As reported by Antara, Gian Piero Gasperini's team only needed seven minutes to open the scoring through Mario Articleic's right-footed shot completing Josip Ilicic's cross.

Five minutes later, the former Chelsea man scored his second with Luis Muriel's through ball to double the hosts' advantage.

Venezia's efforts to retaliate through Sofian Kiyine, Thomas Henry, and Tanner Tessmann have not yielded results so that the 2-0 advantage for Atalanta lasted until halftime.

Atalanta's advantage increased again in the 57th minute after Teun Koopmeiners' long-range shot beat goalkeeper Sergio Romero.

Then ten minutes later, Pasalic completed his hat-trick in this match with a close-range flick to continue Muriel's pass and the 4-0 score lasted until the whistle for the match was heard at the Gewiss Stadium.

Despite the win, Atalanta has not moved from fourth place in the standings due to being behind on goal difference and more games than Inter Milan, despite both collecting 31 points.

Meanwhile, Venezia, who lost two in a row, failed to add 15 points and was stuck in 16th place in the standings.
