Gianluca Mancini’s winning goal was at first disallowed, then given via VAR, as Atalanta fought hard to defeat Chievo.

The Orobici thoroughly deserved their victory, especially as they were missing captain Papu Gomez and defender Mattia Caldara.

Bryan Cristante and Josip Ilicic had several scoring opportunities before Mancini bundled a knocked-down corner over the line.

It was at first disallowed, but the decision was revoked after viewing the VAR and ascertaining it had come off his chest rather than his stomach.
