Atalanta pulled off a surprising victory at Anfield, defeating Liverpool 3-0 on Thursday and making Liverpool’s path to the Europa League semi-finals significantly more challenging.
Gianluca Scamacca was the standout performer, scoring two crucial goals to set Atalanta on the road to an impressive win.
The Italian side maintained their control over the match, and with just seven minutes left on the clock, Mario Pasalic added a third goal.
This late strike put the game out of Liverpool’s reach and condemned them to their first home defeat in any competition in 14 months.
The result leaves Liverpool with a difficult task ahead to advance further in the Europa League.
