[00:01:33] Right then, here we are, Serie A chronicles, too far as the listeners.

[00:01:37] I'm on my way back from having commentated on Atalanta 4, Fiorintina 1 on the night.

[00:01:45] Atalanta 4, Fiorintina 2 on aggregate, the Copp Italia.

[00:01:49] Freccio Ross, a semi-final second leg, Fiorintina 1 up from the first match three weeks ago.

[00:01:56] But very quickly was that first leg lead wiped out.

[00:01:59] Ironically, Rolando Mandragora, he who scored a stunner at the Frankie in the first leg,

[00:02:05] inadvertently played the ball straight into the path of turn-cope manors.

[00:02:09] And if there's one play you don't want to give the ball to in 2024,

[00:02:12] it's turn-cope manors who is just in unbelievable form.

[00:02:15] It took its tally to 14 goals across all competitions.

[00:02:18] And it never looked lightly that he was going to miss.

[00:02:21] Just strode into the box and fired it past Terracia.

[00:02:25] So eight minutes in, we were back to square one.

[00:02:28] It was one all on aggregate and Atalanta looked like they were really fired up.

[00:02:33] They looked even more fired up on 15 minutes when Scamaca decided to smash one into the top corner.

[00:02:39] Unfortunately, Copp Manors who had scored the first goal

[00:02:43] actually caught Beltran with his studs in the lead-up to Scamaca's shot.

[00:02:49] So the goal was disallowed, the VAR interviewee.

[00:02:52] There was an on-field review and Federico La Pena, the referee,

[00:02:57] was made aware of the infringement.

[00:03:00] It's me indicating it, in case you can hear.

[00:03:02] Unlike Italians, I tend to indicate in the car.

[00:03:06] Oh, passive aggressive.

[00:03:10] Anyway, back to what I was saying, Scamaca a little bit miffed to see the goal disallowed,

[00:03:14] but it was the right decision.

[00:03:15] It's a shame because he scored in front of the Coup de Nord,

[00:03:17] where all the Atalanta diehard fans congregate.

[00:03:21] They're again an amazing voice just they were six days ago against Liverpool.

[00:03:25] And that meant it was 1-0 at the break

[00:03:29] because Atalanta spurned a few more chances to get to Lada,

[00:03:32] wasted one, Ruggieri missed another one.

[00:03:35] And so it was perfectly poised after 45 minutes

[00:03:37] and we thought maybe a third consecutive Coppa Italia tie

[00:03:42] featuring Fiorentina this season was going to go the distance.

[00:03:45] Reminder, they had beaten Parma and Bologna on penalties.

[00:03:48] Drew Toul against Parma.

[00:03:49] He trailed 2-0 in that tie and scored twice

[00:03:52] to even take the game to extra time in penalties.

[00:03:55] And against Bologna after a goal was draw,

[00:03:59] they had beaten the Rosso Blu on penalties.

[00:04:02] So we thought, well, Fiorentina are level if they can hang on

[00:04:08] and they might have had a chance of hanging on

[00:04:10] had it not been for again Scamaca

[00:04:12] who was the star of the show this evening

[00:04:13] when he suddenly burst through

[00:04:16] and prompted Milenkovic to foul him.

[00:04:20] What they used to call the last man,

[00:04:24] followed Ultima Warmore,

[00:04:25] what's technically these days called dog-so,

[00:04:27] denying a goal scoring opportunity,

[00:04:30] denial of goal scoring opportunity.

[00:04:32] And Milenkovic was sent up,

[00:04:35] there's still 40 minutes to play plus added time

[00:04:37] so it felt like a formality.

[00:04:38] Then Atalanta would go on a win the game,

[00:04:39] they'd been carving over Fiorentina,

[00:04:41] they'd been scoring chance after chance after chance.

[00:04:45] This is a team that we forget that recently scored three

[00:04:47] without reply at Anfield to smash Liverpool.

[00:04:50] But in a bizarre quirk of fate,

[00:04:53] or you can hear someone with their tunes on in the car next to me,

[00:04:56] in a bizarre twist of fate,

[00:05:00] to quote Bob Dylan,

[00:05:02] all the cultural references coming out tonight,

[00:05:05] Vincenzo Italiano had to withdraw a forward,

[00:05:07] Andrea Bellotti ironically,

[00:05:09] Berga Masco born in Bergamo.

[00:05:12] He was taken off and Lucas Mathine

[00:05:14] as Quarta was sent on and he does have a knife for goal,

[00:05:17] so much so that when Fiorentina got a free kicker,

[00:05:19] it was pretty much the only time they'd been

[00:05:21] in the Atalanta half at all in the second period,

[00:05:25] Biraghi Benzirin, Lucas Mathine as Quarta peals away

[00:05:28] from his man and heads in.

[00:05:30] And all of a sudden it's level on the night,

[00:05:32] Fiorentina are back in front in the tie,

[00:05:34] they lead two-one on aggregate,

[00:05:35] you think this is unbelievable.

[00:05:36] 10-man Fiorentina are gonna draw in Bergamo

[00:05:39] and therefore they're going to go through

[00:05:41] to a second straight Coppa Italia-Freccia-Rossa final

[00:05:45] but Atalanta did have that man advantage

[00:05:48] and they were fully intent on exploiting

[00:05:51] that particular numerical superiority

[00:05:55] and they did so when Scamacus scored an absolute beauty,

[00:05:58] Ruggieri's crossing from the left,

[00:05:59] chested down intelligently by Decchetta Lare.
