In the final match of the Europa League, Atalanta defeated Bayer Leverkusen and thus won only the second trophy in its history.
The success of Gian Piero Gasperini's men was a real ecstasy for Atalanta fans, as the Bergamo-based club won only the second trophy in its history. Before that, Atalanta had only won the Italian Cup in 1963.
It should be added that the victory in the Europa League allowed Atalanta to guarantee a place in the next season's Champions League.
