Ruslan Malinovskyi. The phenomenal Ukrainian midfielder completely changed the pace of the match between Atalanta and Juventus, brought unrest to the ranks of Juventus and waited for the right moment to shake the visitors’ net. After an hour of the ‘war in the trenches’, somebody had to make a move and try to score a goal. And it was coach Gasperini’s substitute which changed the game. Malinowski sent the projectile in 76th minute, and helpless Voytech Szczesny was beaten from 30 meters. However, the guests were persistent in the end and it came back to them in the corner in the third minute of overtime. Paulo Dybala made a great break, and Danilo was great in the jump. Atalanta was left without two points that would bring them fourth place, thus Juventus remained in the place that leads to the Champions League – 1:1 (0: 0).What a strike from Ruslan Malinovskyi Unbelievable 🔥🔥🚀 🚀pic.twitter.com/QHSubbSf1b— Jerry Mancini (@jmancini8) February 13, 2022 Juventus had problems to impose themselves as a team that dictates the pace, but by the end of the game when Malinovskyi entered, the visitors had a number of dangerous opportunities. Most of them were missed by Vlahović, but the great attempt of Dybala from the 14th minute will also be remembered. However, Atalanta was not far behind in that regard either. Luis Moriel has a chance to score an empty goal at the end of half an hour. Voytech Szczesny made a mistake and ran out of the penalty area trying to stop Teun Koopmeiners, but he failed and the ball bounced at the feet of the Colombian striker, but he did not react in accordance with his abilities.#Danilo 6️⃣🇧🇷⚽🔝”Telecronaca Brasiliana” 🎙️🇧🇷 pic.twitter.com/4J8pdD6SrK— Giuseppe Abbate (@Giuseppe170175) February 13, 2022 Allegri made four changes in the end of the match in just seven minutes. It seemed that none of that would bring results, although it didn’t, since the starters were in the forefront when equalizing. Gasperini ‘scored’ with the first two changes, and then, before the break, he introduced Mario Pašalić instead of the diminished Boga in order to gain the upper hand in defensive breaks. However, the Croatian midfielder did not evaluate the flight of that Dybala’s ball the best, but Danilo did, and set the final result of the match. Atalanta had a perfect opportunity to defeat Juventus and take over that fourth spot, but they failed and remain two points behind Turin’s team.SERIE A – ROUND 25SaturdayLazio – Bologna 3-0 (1-0)/Immobile 13 pen, Zaccagni 53,63/Napoli – Inter 1-1 (1-0)/Insigne 5 pen, Dzeko 47/Torino – Venezia 1-2 (1-1)/Brekalo 5 – Haps 38, Crnigoj 46/Sunday Milan – Sampdoria 1-0Empoli – Cagliari 1-1Genoa – Salernitana 1-1Verona – Udinese 4-0Sassuolo – Roma 2-2Atalanta – Juventus 1-1
