A hat-trick for Liverpool slipped the new addition to Diogo Jota’s “reds”. He scored at 16, 33 and 54 minutes.
The other two goals for the guests were scored by Mohamed Salah in minute 47 and Sadio Mane in minute 49.
Liverpool started the game strong and put strong pressure on Atalanta from the start. This led to first position in the third minute. Then Diogo Jota tied the hosts defense, followed by a strong shot, but Sportiello saved.
A little later, Manet could have scored, but again Sportiello was in his place and reflected. The Italians’ response was a heavy blow from Luis Muriel, but Alison showed class and struggled to score. In the following minutes, Liverpool beat Atalanta and scored deservedly.
In the 16th minute, Diogo Jota scored a great goal after technically kicking the ball and sending it into the home team’s net by 0: 1. Atalanta could have equalized immediately, but Muriel again couldn’t get past Alison.
They were strong minutes for Bergamas, but they missed their chances and were once again punished by Jota. In the 34th minute, Diogo technically freed himself from the hosts’ defense and stretched the net for 0: 2. At the end of the half, Manet had a pass.
The second half began with a new goal from Liverpool. Salah got behind Atlanta’s defense and made no mistake: 0: 3. A little later it became 0: 4. Salah released the ball to Mane, which left Sportielo defenseless with a diagonal shot.
However, that was not all for the crazy start of the second half. In the 54th minute Mane took Jota out and scored 0: 5 and thus registered a hat trick. A pass to Salah followed. In those minutes, Liverpool had fun and did what they wanted on the field.
Atalanta came close to scoring in the 62nd minute, but Papu Gómez sent the ball to the visitor’s crossbar. A little later, Zapata reported with a pass.
At the end of the match both teams exchanged various positions, but no new goals were scored. Thus, Liverpool registered their third consecutive victory and has a complete asset of 9 points.
