Gianluca Scamacca didn’t enjoy the best of times with West Ham last season for numerous reasons, but his return to England with Atalanta is going well, as he’s scored two against Liverpool at Anfield.
Another former Premier League man, Chelsea old boy Davide Zappacosta, provided the assist, finding himself in an acre of space out right. He put the ball across the box to Scamacca, who sidefooted the ball into the net.
Near-imperious since replacing the injured Alisson, there was question marks over Caoimhin Kelleher’s role in the goal as the ball seemed to go through his arms.
He then got his second just after the hour as Liverpool’s defence found itself all at sea, sending the travelling fans from Bergamo into a frenzy.
The Serie A side made it 3-0 late on through Mario Pašalić, sealing potentially the most famous result in the Bergamo side’s history.
