Do you think that Leverkusen's defeat was because they underestimated Atalanta? no friend, this is the final match and anything is possible in the final match. Moreover Leverkusen is not a team that has a strong mentality when playing in the Europa League final match which has a very high mentality so I am not that surprised by what happened and also in every season The Europa League always has big surprises, and again and again this season big surprises have happened and even in the final match.
Many football analysts say that high press man-to-man marking is a tactic commonly used by most teams in Serie A and Gasperini applied it in the UEL final. Leverkusen played flexibly and placed many players in the opponent's defense line when in attacking positions. And the high press man-to-man marking tactic was very effective in reducing Leverkusen's playing style. Leverkusen players also only have average individual skills so by applying high pressure to each player they are unable to create many chances even though they have 70% possession of the ball. So the result of the match that night was not a coincidence, but it was a genius tactic implemented by Gasperini. Because of this, Atalanta and Gasperini deserve to be champions of the European League this season.
