Maurizio Sarri has said that Atalanta's performances have improved of late, but the team needs to light a fire in their souls despite suffering a third consecutive defeat against Juventus. Sarri said in this match that Atalanta had chances to equalize, especially when Francisco Conceição scored the first goal.

In this match, Atalanta lost 2-0 against Juventus. "We were out of the game after the second goal and lost our unity and shape," Sarri said. "We stayed in the game for the first 65 minutes of the match. I believe that my team is improving technically and tactically, but we are lagging behind in terms of courage, enthusiasm and initiative," Sarri told Sky Sport Italia.

After three consecutive Serie A defeats, is it time for crisis for Atalanta? To this, Sarri said, "I don't think so. The level of performance was low in the first three games, but in the last three games we are improving. This team has to show more character, it has to light a fire in its soul."

Sarri also said that they are alternating between two tactical systems, but he expects more initiative and courage from the players. “We have to get out from behind quickly so we can create one-on-one situations,” he said.

Sarri blamed Atalanta's defense for the first goal, which allowed Concessão to score without being marked. He said, "Our winger allowed him to run in behind, which was not the right situation. I didn't like it. The ball should not have been allowed to go through."

Immediately after the goal Jonathan Rowe appealed for a penalty for shirt pulling by Pierre Kalulu, to which Sarri said, "To be honest I have no problem with this version with almost no VAR intervention." However, he added that if VAR does not intervene even in clear and obvious circumstances, it should be abolished altogether.

What will happen next

Atalanta need to improve their game in the next matches, especially as they want to stabilize their performance in Serie A. Players will have to show more initiative and courage in adopting Sarri's strategies. If Atalanta regain their confidence, they can hope for a better performance in Serie A.
