In the just concluded Europa League final, Atlanta finally created a miracle. They defeated Leverkusen 3-0 and won the team's first Europa League championship, while the team led by Alonso suffered his first defeat of the season.
Before the game, Leverkusen was undoubtedly a favorite. This strong team in the Bundesliga had won the Bundesliga championship with unbeaten record, creating a team history record. Therefore, almost everyone believed that they could win the second championship of the season. However, I don't know whether it was too much celebration before, or after 51 unbeaten games, Leverkusen's luck ran out, and they ended up with a disastrous defeat and missed the Europa League.
Judging from the 90 minute performance, the reason why Leverkusen lost this game was that they could not defend Lukman. Only 12 minutes after the first half, Lukman had already made Leverkusen pay the price. He moved in the restricted area, pushed forward from behind, and finally outflanked the goal, which made Alonso look invincible on the sidelines.
If the first goal was an accident, the second one was enough to make Leverkusen despair. At that time, Lukman took the ball, then passed the opponent by his own ability, and finally volleyed the goal. This time, Leverkusen faced Lukman with many people, but he also scored a breakthrough goal and was completely defeated.
As for the goal in the second half, Leverkusen was even more powerless. Atlanta counterattacked, and it took only a few seconds for them to reach the front court. Lukman received the ball and adjusted, and then scored a hat trick, which also helped Atlanta win a big victory and finally win the Europa League championship.
That night, Lukman alone broke Leverkusen. The 3-0 match also changed the fate of Leverkusen, Atlanta and Rome:
1. Leverkusen lost the Europa League championship after losing, and they also failed to win the third championship;
2. Atlanta won the championship, which is the first time their team has won the Europa League in 117 years. Before that, Atlanta had only won one Italian Cup. In addition, it had won five Serie B titles, and once it cared about the title of C. After that night, they finally stood on the top of Europe and realized their long cherished wish;
3. With Atlanta winning the championship, Rome is only one step away from the European Championships. Next, as long as Atlanta ranks fifth (they have already locked the top five ahead of time), then Serie A will get six places in the Champions League, while Rome, which has already locked the sixth place, will catch the last bus of the Champions League.
Seeing the carnival in Atlanta, I believe Rome also laughed. Considering that Atlanta has no desire for nothing and many players still want to participate in the European Cup, it is believed that the last two rounds of the league will be rotated in Atlanta, and they may lose two games at any time, eventually helping Serie A win six places in the Champions League, becoming the first league where six teams participate in the Champions League in a single season in the history of the Champions League!
