Atalanta heads to the Allianz Arena in Munich to honor the round of 16 match against Bayern Munich: the result of the first leg leaves little room for dreams, 6-1 with no appeal.
Palladino's team reacted well by drawing with Inter in the league and now faces a challenge against Verona next weekend. The goal for La Dea is clear: not to repeat last week's performance.
🗣️ Palladino: "We will play differently compared to the first leg"
In the pre-match interview with Amazon Prime, Palladino said: "An experience like this shapes us, playing against these teams raises your level. We want to keep growing, the Champions League is wonderful."
He also commented on the tactics, which will be different from the first leg: "If we had few chances to go through, we wanted to play them at home. The game plan didn't work in the first half. Then we dropped deeper, but it still went badly. You can't catch them on a good day: today we will have a different game plan, we’ll play deeper. We’ll try to hurt them on the counterattack.”
