into the semis after beating AC Milan at the Meazza! – Atalanta

AC Milan

"Semis Secured After Meazza Victory Over AC Milan In Coppa Italia!"

Atalanta scored two goals from Koopmeiners and put on an impressive team display to win 2-1 against AC Milan at the Meazza stadium. This result secured their place in the Coppa Italia Frecciarossa semi-finals for the 2023-2024 season. The next match for Gasperini's side will be against Fiorentina.

Following a great Musah attempt that Carnesecchi deflected, the Nerazzurri made their own attempt as Holm kicked the ball over the goal. De Ketelaere passed the ball to de Roon who also tried to score, but was stopped by Gabbia. Although Gabbia seemed to obstruct de Roon, the referee did not signal for a penalty. AC Milan's Leao managed to score in the 45th minute, but Atalanta quickly retaliated with a goal from Koopmeiners just before half-time, thanks to an assist from Holm.

Koopmeiners was a major threat at the beginning of the second half, with Maignan saving a powerful left-footed shot from the Dutch player. Koopmeiners then missed a shot on the 55th minute before Atalanta made a comeback and scored on the 59th minute. Jimenez fouled Miranchuk in the area, resulting in a penalty which Koopmeiners converted perfectly, bringing the score to 1-2. The Nerazzurri team continued to attack, with De Ketelaere and Éderson having shots blocked by the AC Milan goalkeeper. Miranchuk also missed the target with a curling effort. Éderson had another chance in the 69th minute, but his shot was deflected wide by Musha. Two minutes later, Carnesecchi saved a shot from Pulisic. The Nerazzurri team fought hard in the final minutes to secure their place in the semi-finals with a 2-1 away victory.

The individuals who scored in the game are Leao, who scored at the 45th minute for the team M, and Koopmeiners who scored at the 45+2 minute for team A. Koopmeiners also scored again through a penalty kick at the 59th minute for team A.

In Milan's recent game, the starting squad included Maignan, Calabria, Simic (who was later substituted in the 62nd minute), Gabbia (who was unfortunately substituted in the 39th minute due to an injury), Hernandez, Musah, Loftus-Cheek (who was later substituted in the 72nd minute), Reijnders (who also left the field in the 72nd minute in order to allow Giroud to take his place), Jimenez (who was substituted in the 62nd minute for Terracciano), Pulisic, Jovic, and Leao. There were also players on the bench who did not take part in the game itself, including Nava, Mirante, Romero, Traoré, Zeroli, and Bartesaghi. The team was coached by Stefano Pioli.

Here's my attempt at rewriting the blog section in simpler English: The Atalanta team had several players on the field: Carnesecchi, Scalvini, Djimsiti, Kolašinac, Holm, de Roon, Éderson, Ruggeri, Koopmeiners, Miranchuk, and De Ketelaere. However, Pašalić and Hien also played for a short time towards the end of the game. The team's coach was Gian Piero Gasperini. Some other players were on the bench, but they didn't get to play.

The person in charge of making sure the game is played fairly is Marco Di Bello from Brindisi. The people assisting him are Valerio Colarossi from Roma 2 and Francesca Di Monte from Chieti. If there's a need for a fourth official, that's Maria Sole Ferrieri Caputi from Livorno. Handling any reviews that need to be made are Paolo Valeri from Roma 2 and Antonio Di Martino from Teramo.

Gasperini from team A was shown the red card after being given a second yellow card in the 39th minute. On top of that, Hernandez and Leao from team M, and Éderson from team A received a warning from the referee.
