After achieving the same number of victories in the opening two rounds, the players of Atalanta have now tied two defeats.
And if the failure against Roma at the "Olimpic" (2:1) is not that worrying considering that the "wolf" is actually a better quality rival, then tonight's home defeat to Cagliari in the 4th round of Serie A (1:2) is certainly a sign of concern for coach Maurizio Sarri.
Montenegrin national team player Nikola Krstović got a chance in the 68th minute, but failed to wake up his teammates and initiate a possible turnaround.
The guests from Sardinia took the lead in the 19th minute through Paul Mendy.
Atalanta equalized in the 41st minute when the ball, with a lot of luck, reached Gianluca Scamacca, who was precise.
However, the goal worth three points for Cagliari, for whom this is their third win in four matches this season, was scored by Daniel Maldini in the 61st minute from a penalty kick.
