Leverkusen seemed that they have forced their limit to the achieve the unbeaten record. That ambition got them backfired by exhaustion. Leverkusen kept winning or drawing games in the last minutes has really made them drained to their limit. They entered the game with so lack of focus that made Atalanta scored two goals in the first half.
Atalanta seemed to have learned a lesson after a loss in Copa Italia to Juventus. They started the game really well, exploited any space in the Leverkusen's defense, this tactics succeeded to put them on a two-goals lead. This situation made all Leverkusen's plans on the game became meaningless, Everything became out of control for them. This will be a good lesson for Alonso in his managerial career.
Congratulations again to Atalanta for been crowned Europa League Champions for 2023/2024 season. Bayer Leverkusen keeping unbeaten run only for them to lose 3 nil in the Europa League final to Atalanta. This was one of the most humiliating defeats for them and I gives credits to Atalanta headcoach, Gian Piero Gasperini for an outstanding task delivered successfully. Atalanta understood the pressure and game pattern of Bayer Leverkusen and they absorbed all pressure and reciprocated with exerted full energy which ended quite excellent on their end.
