Matteo Pessina grabbed the tie for Hellas Verona to hold his high-flying parents club Atalanta 1-1 in Serie A on Saturday. Atalanta moves at the point level with Inter Milan, which is second, but is six points behind Serie A leaders Juventus. On loan, Pessina tapped just before the hour mark in Verona minutes after Colombian striker Duvan Zapata had overtaken the visitors.
Atalanta moves at the 71-point level with Inter Milan, second-placed. Inter Milan will travel to Rome in fifth place on Sunday, and the eight-time starter Juventus on Monday will welcome Lazio in fourth place, which is eight points from first place.
"Talking about the Scudetto was always excessive," said Gasperini, whose team has now scored a club record 22 games in a row.
Atalanta's hopes of a first Scudetto in the team's 112-year history have ended with four games to play.
"Since the restart (after the coronavirus), we have been getting results at Scudetto-pace, but that was never our goal because something extraordinary had to happen for us, but also for Juventus
