Atalanta leads Serie A with 40 points from 17 matches. Napoli is in second place (38 points, 17 games), Inter is in third place (37 points, 16 games). Atalanta won their last 11 matches in the tournament.
— Atalanta looks too powerful. Look at the combination football they play! Finally their coach’s job [Джан Пьеро Гасперини] bore fruit. One-touch game, walls and very high performance. Lookman is just a monster! Atalanta plays lightning-fast football and it is very difficult for this team to score. But, of course, Inter has always been and will be a contender for the championship. He will wedge himself into the fight for the title. Let’s not forget about Napoli,” Korneev said on the air of the “Everyone for the Match!” program.
