22:05 Match Report

 

22:03 Lookman goal

 

21:58 FT: Atalanta 4-1 Fiorentina

Atalanta go through to the Coppa Italia Final 4-2 on aggregate and will face Juventus on May 15.

21:57 Atalanta 4-1 Fiorentina: Mario Pasalic!

That’s done it! Atalanta on the counter, Scamacca to Lookman, he rolls it on for Pasalic and beats Terracciano with a delicate dink!

21:56 It’s not over yet

Another 3 minutes to play, Fiorentina down to 10.

21:54 IT’S NOT OFFSIDE

Atalanta 3-1 Fiorentina on the night, 3-2 on aggregate, VAR after a VERY long check says it is not offside!

21:53 Atalanta goal disallowed!

Fiorentina already complaining about a possible foul in the build-up, but the offside flag went up for Lookman’s angled drive on the Scamacca pass.

21:51 Crucial block

Miranchuk rolls across from the right for the Scamacca tap-in, but Comuzzo gets in the way!

21:49 Stoppages

Into 5 minutes. If no more goals, we go to extra time.

21:47 De Ketelaere miss!

Comuzzo slips, De Ketelaere sprints away on the counter, but then blasts over the bar!

21:46 Save on Lookman

Pasalic lays it off for Lookman, but the finish is scuffed into the arms of Terracciano.

21:46 Scamacca goal

 

21:43 Atalanta chance!

There were three of them, how did they not at least get a shot on target? Scamacca sprung the offside trap, laid it off to Lookman, then Pasalic blocked by Biraghi.

21:41 Fiorentina subs

Ikone, Kayode and Comuzzo on, Dodo, Mandragora and Kouame off

21:41 Scamacca goal

 

21:38 Scamacca booked

Scamacca booked for treading on Nico Gonzalez’s foot, but don’t see much in that. It means if Atalanta do make it to the Final, he will be suspended!

21:35 The Martinez Quarta goal

 

21:33 Atalanta 2-1 Fiorentina: Gianluca Scamacca!

WHAT A GOAL. That is ludicrous! De Ketelaere nods it down, it bounces, Scamacca leaps into the air and hits it on the volley sideways into the far corner from 12 yards! It’s now 2-2 on aggregate!

21:33 Atalanta sub

Miranchuk replaces Zappacosta

21:31 Martinez Quarta goal

 

21:29 Scamacca back-heel

Scamacca realises he has no room to turn, tries a back-heel flick, but Terracciano is ready for it.

21:28 Atalanta subs

Lookman and Pasalic on, Ederson and Kolasinac off. Dodo also booked for provocative celebration in front of the Atalanta fans.

21:26 Atalanta 1-1 Fiorentina: Lucas Martinez Quarta!

They get out of their own half and Kouame is brought down by Hien. That Biraghi free kick is placed to the back post for a completely free Lucas Martinez Quarta header back across Carnesecchi! Down to 10 men, no problem!

21:25 Fiorentina under siege

They can’t get out of their half…

21:20 Oh De Roon

Scamacca and then CDK nod it down to the edge of the area, where De Roon scuffs it horribly wide.

21:18 Fiorentina sub

Duncan on, Beltran off

21:16 Milenkovic red card

 

 

21:14 Kolasinac booked

He was in an attacking move, but Nico Gonzalez got there first, sliding tackle was late.

21:14 Scamacca deflected

Ferocious Scamacca free kick deflected over for a corner.

21:13 Fiorentina sub

Martinez-Quarta on, Belotti off.

21:11 Milenkovic sent off!

Scamacca sent clear by De Ketelaere through ball, Milenkovic was the last man and tripped him blatantly outside the penalty area. That’s a clear scoring opportunity, can’t entirely argue with that.

21:07 Atalanta chance!

After a long passing move, Zappacosta cross finds the Ruggeri header from six yards and he steers it wide!

21:03 2nd half kicks off: Atalanta 1-0 Fiorentina

It’s 1-1 on aggregate.

20:49 Half-Time: Atalanta 1-0 Fiorentina

Early Koopmeiners goal means it’s all square on aggregate. If it stays like this, it goes to extra time.

20:45 Dodo error

Fiorentina corner comes to Dodo for a fresh-air volley.

20:42 Bonaventura attempt

Rather a weak finish straight at Carnesecchi from the veteran. First yellow card of the game goes to Mandragora for catching Koopmeiners on the Achilles. Ouch. It means if Fiorentina reach the Final, he’ll be suspended.

20:40 Atalanta waste

A very good move down the right, pulled back for Ederson, Milenkovic makes a block, then Ruggeri fires over!

20:37 Fiorentina chance

Belotti gets between centre-backs, realises the space has closed, spreads it for Kouame, but his angled drive charged down by Hien.

20:34 Atalanta close

De Ketelaere give and go with Scamacca, sprints forward, angled drive INCHES wide of the upright! That scraped it.

20:32 CDK error

Atalanta harass their way into winning back the ball, but CDK tries to cut inside and gets his legs tangled.

20:31 Another Viola complaint

Linesman on this side not having a great game. After missing the clear Fiorentina corner in the opening minute, he missed a clear throw-in too.

20:28 Nico Gonzalez back on

No penalty, as they were both looking at the ball and Nico backed into Carnesecchi.

20:26 Tension

Biraghi free kick, clumsy Carnesecchi punch, ended up kneeing Nico Gonzalez in the back during the process, but replays suggest he also trod on the Fiorentina striker’s foot…

20:23 Save on Koopmeiners!

A lovely Atalanta team move from midfield, De Ketelaere to Koopmeiners, who spins on the spot and shoots all in one movement, Terracciano manages to parry.

20:20 Koopmeiners goal

 

 

20:19 Fiorentina corner

Flicked on, cleared, they are continuing to push, Bonaventura can’t get a clean header on the Dodo cross.

20:15 DISALLOWED

Foul on Beltran in the build-up.

20:14 VAR!

Reviewing the build-up, yep, Beltran had his foot trodden on by Koopmeiners.

20:13 Atalanta 2-0 Fiorentina: Gianluca Scamacca!

BOOM. Fiorentina angry as it started with a challenge on Beltran, but Scamacca’s screamer into the top corner from the edge of the area was simply unstoppable. He absolutely SMASHED that.

20:10 Mandragora scorcher

Not like the first leg, off target.

20:08 Atalanta 1-0 Fiorentina: Teun Koopmeiners!

So much for that! Atalanta are lethal on the counter, through ball releases Koopmeiners through the centre, there’s a huge gap in the middle of the defence and he sweeps it into the far bottom corner! Now it’s 1-1 on aggregate.

20:07 Save on Belotti

Fiorentina definitely not resting on their 1-0 advantage here. Belotti low curler from distance, Carnesecchi has to get down and push it away, just beyond Kouame.

20:04 Fiorentina effort

Nico Gonzalez curler from distance, but it takes a lot more than that to surprise Carnesecchi, who performed heroics in the first leg.

20:03 Live in the UK

 

20:02 Nico Gonzalez furious

Kolasinac sliding tackle was clean, but it should’ve been a corner.
