Well, the game between Atalanta and Manchester United in Italy was a very dramatic one.
As usual, we all excepted Atalanta to score first because of the balance in their attack in the person of Duvan Zapata, Mario Pasalic and Joseph Ilicic.
The Slovenian footballer Joseph Ilicic opened the scoring in the 12th minute of the game. They tried their best in containing the united aggressive front until the end of the first half when the 11th hour magician in the name of Cristiano Ronaldo squared things up for united.
The first half ended in a 1-1 tie.
After 15 minutes of rest, the players all matched down to the field as usual to execute the game plan given to them by their respective coaches.
The match began with Atalanta still putting the manchester united defenders in big trouble until they finally found the back of the net with a goal in the 56th minute, goal scored by Duvan Zapata which was initially ruled off for an offside.
After VARS intervention, the goal was allowed.
They tried holding back united but as it's always said in football, "It's not over until it's over".
Just when we thought it's over for my Club Manchester United and probably Ole, the magician struck again in the 90th minute. It was an awesome moment for the red devils as "siu" echoed down the Street in Italy. The match ended in a 2 - 2 draw.
It was a mind thrilling match, that's why I decided to bring back the memory.
Thanks for reading through.
