Samardzic shines with coast-to-coast in 3-0 practice win over Atalanta
According to Tuttomercatoweb.
Background
Lazar Samardzic, the 22-year-old midfielder of Atalanta, proved himself in this practice match with a fantastic goal. His performances could play an important role in the competition, especially with the pressure of Serie A and the Europa Conference League on the horizon.
Why this matters
Atalanta's 3-0 win over Schalke 04 is a positive indication of their preparation for the new season in Serie A. Lazar Samardzic's impressive solo goal not only highlights his individual qualities, but also the team's collective progress. This performance can boost the players' confidence, which is crucial for their season outlook.
Key points
- Samardzic shines with coast-to-coast in 3-0 practice win over Atalanta.
- Atalanta wins 3-0 at Schalke 04.
- Atalanta, coast to coast di Samardzic per il gol: "Si è visto cosa sappiamo fare".
In the run-up to the new season, Atalanta has booked a clear practice victory at Schalke 04: 0-3 in Germany. The eye-catcher was Lazar Samardzic, who increased the margin with an impressive 'coast to coast' and left his mark on the friendly match. The midfielder responded afterwards via the club channels with satisfaction about both his goal and the team's performance.
According to Samardzic, Atalanta showed exactly what it is looking for in this phase of the preparation: a lot of intensity and sufficient quality on the ball. At the same time, he emphasized that there are still steps to be taken. “We have shown what we can do,” he said substantively. The 22-year-old midfielder crowned his performance with a beautiful goal: he regained the ball far from the goal, immediately started a long sprint and kept his cool along the way. With a feint he passed his direct opponent, then cut down the outcoming goalkeeper and slid in with control. A practice match or not, a goal like that always gives confidence.
Atalanta's control proved broader than just Samardzic's solo. In the duels for the second ball, the moment of pressure after losing the ball and the positional play patterns, the team looked further than you usually see early in the preparation. Yet the message afterwards was realistic: there is still plenty to fine-tune towards the start of the serious work.
In the short term, Atalanta is mainly looking ahead to the European play-off in the Conference League. Samardzic spoke of an 'all or nothing type match', in which details make the difference. The plan is clear: find the right pace, play the spaces and remain compact when the opponent presses. Practice matches such as those in Germany serve to hone automatisms and build up match rhythm, so that the team will soon be ready for the real work.
For Samardzic personally, the preparation feels like an opportunity to further grow his role in the middle line. His ability to create meters from transitionand at the same time be decisive in the final phase, proved once again to be a weapon against Schalke 04. At the same time, like the rest of the selection, he wants to become even sharper in choices ahead and in coordination with the attackers.
The 3-0 in Gelsenkirchen is therefore more than just a neat result; it is a snapshot that confirms that Atalanta is on track. The coming training sessions and practice matches should further sharpen that picture. With the Conference League play-off approaching and the start of the competition in sight, every detail counts. Samardzic and co. at least seem to have set the right tone.
What's happening now
Atalanta now focuses on the upcoming play-offs in the Europa Conference League, where they want to continue their strong form. The coach, Maurizio Sarri, will focus on fine-tuning tactics and improving team dynamics. The focus is on maintaining the intensity and quality they showed in this practice match.
