The outcome of the game left me speechless because I never expected to see Bayer Leverkusen lose the game in such a way that they couldn't even try to get back on the game, the sad truth is that the Bayer Leverkusen team never expected the defeat since they have been successful in defeating their opponents and securing draws in the last minutes so they may have doubted the strength of Atalanta in defeating them but at the end of the day they were defeated in a bad way which put an end to their decent record of unbeaten in all competition. I believe the team accepted the outcome of the game in good faith and they are hoping to be back to winning ways when they play the DFB finals and hopefully they get a win to apologize to them fans who was disappointed in their defeat against Atalanta.
I am not very surprised at the outcome of that game, I mentioned earlier in this thread that I was expecting the repeat of Manchester United and Ajax Europa league final magic in this present one. Their loss to Juve was like a setup to me because the normal Atalanta I know wouldn't lose that match just like that. They made their opponents underestimate them while packaging a surprise turbo boost to conquer Leverkusen. On that very day, Leverkusen couldn't believe their eyes as Atalanta locked their defense and threw away the keys never to be found, almost no Leverkusen tactics could break that defense. They Leverkusen defense were busy marking closely the likes of Scarmarca. Lookman who was underestimated and left barely marked played just like Drogba and converted most of his chances to give Atlanta a well deserved win and not only did they end Leverkusen unbeaten record, they trashed the team in what looked like the game ceased to be a contest
