Lookman's heroics
Atalanta came into the final games of the season with the chance to lift two trophies, the Coppa Italia and the Europa League. They seemed set for another season of suffering disappointment from being nearly men when they lost the Coppa Italia to Juventus and faced a Europa League final against an unbeaten Bayer Leverkusen.
As early as the 12th minute, Lookman announced La Dea’s intent, firing past Matej Kova. He doubled the advantage in the 26th minute, and with 15 minutes left to go in regular time, he bagged his hat-trick, making it three and taking the tie further away from Die Werkself.
Lookman singlehandedly handed Gasperini his first trophy after 20 years as a manager, and Atalanta’s first major trophy in the top flight since the 1963 Coppa Italia, and he was deservedly handed the Man-of-the-Match for his heroics.
What Victor Moses said
Moses, who is himself a two-time winner of the Europa League (2012/2013 and 2018/19) both with Chelsea, was one of the first to react to Lookman’s heroics in the final against Bayer Leverkusen.
The former Wigan Athletic wideman took to X and said, “What a great performance from Lookman tonight 👏🏾🔥.”
