Atalanta Primavera at the "Memorial Mamma e Papà Cairo" trophy
Inter vanquished in the semi-final
Atalanta Primavera's lead-in to the official league debut, scheduled for Monday, August 18, in Caravaggio against Hellas Verona continues with a new set of test matches.
After drawing 1-1 at Villa Valle last Saturday, coach Bosi’s Nerazzurri have advanced to the final of the Memorial Mamma e Papà Cairo. Their semifinal clash against Inter at Alessandria’s Moccagatta Stadium ended 1-1 in regular time (with Mouisse, pictured on the cover, on the scoresheet for Atalanta). The match was decided by a penalty shootout, with Bosi’s boys completing a flawless streak and converting all eight spot-kicks to secure their place in the final thanks to an 8-7 final score. The title match will take place on Friday, August 8, also in Alessandria, against Torino, who defeated Milan on penalties in the other semifinal (kick-off at 21:00 CEST).
