BERGAMO - Atalanta suffered their first home defeat, falling 2-1 to Cagliari in a match in which the Nerazzurri failed to capitalize on their attacking prowess. Sarri's team played well in the first 15 minutes, before being surprised by the Rossoblu, who took the lead through Mendy, before coming back late in the first half, equalizing through Scamacca. The second half played out a similar story, with a blistering start and Atalanta pushing forward, until the penalty converted by former player Maldini just after the final quarter, which turned the tide of the game.
