Atalanta out of the Champions League, Naples and Rome ahead – ANSA

(ANSA) – ROME, DECEMBER 09 – The frenzy of victory at any cost brings bad luck to Atalanta, who surrendered 3-2 to Villarreal in Bergamo on the last day of the Champions League Group F. Under 3-0, the blaze of Malinovskyi and Zapata in the final is useless: the round of 16 vanish and turn into relegation to the Europa League. Napoli are half satisfied, beating Leicester with more than one breath (3-2) and grabbing the next round, but the victory of Spartak Moscow in Warsaw relegates the Azzurri to second place in the group and will force them to challenge in the play off one of the eight thirds of the Champions League groups. In the Conference League, Roma won 3-2 in Bulgaria but the success with CSKA Sofia was not enough for the first place in the group, which instead came thanks to the 1-1 draw in Ukraine between Zorya and Bodoe / Glimt. The Giallorossi thus avoid the play-off lottery. (HANDLE).
