Difficult to say. Rugani gives his man a bit of space, making the lay-off too easy, Gatti also doesn't fill the hole behind him and that makes Kalulu take a step in that direction to cover. All just a bit to laid back to hold a tight defence. But I also wouldn't blame Kostic here. If he doesn't tackle and Samardzic scores there, we're all yelling what's wrong with him...
Gatti wasn't on the pitch.

I'll give them the benefit of doubt, we were a man down in defence and hadn't made a sub to fix it. Kalulu gets caught in no man's land but I think he was trying to cover both RCB and CB.

Solid game, good effort from most players. Between this, Dortmund, and the CWC progression, Tudor clearly has positives to build on for a competitive team and defined style.

What should be obvious to the management: we need a proper defender on the left, either as a starter or depth.

Huh? I wouldn't mind watching the full replay. I cannot find it on-line.
I just watch it from Juventus official web, under the video section. I think we improved a little bit but Atalanta really downgrade far more, they will need to scrap tooth and nail if they want to get 4th place this season

Like I said in transfer mercato thread, take Bellanova from them we will have strong wingbacks on both side, probably both will be Italian main team for 3-5 years in the future, and even lowering Atalanta chance to fight for UCL spot

The one on the right then. Looked like Gatti to me but the picture isn't clear on my fucking phone.

It was indeed a sequence of trying to cover for something that started earlier. Not worrysome at all if we were a man down at tbe time.

I suspected we might concede when we went down to 10, bit irritating but the defence generally showed some promising signs. I didn't feel like Atalanta were at Gasp levels of fitness so didn't stretch us as quickly as you'd expect, which always makes defending that bit easier.
