Stefano Colantuono admits seeing a penalty saved and conceding a second to Juventus “would’ve felled a bull.”

The Atalanta” data-scaytid=”3″>Atalanta Coach spoke to Sky Sport Italia after the 3-0 home defeat to Juve, which saw a German Denis spot-kick palmed away by Gigi Buffon.

“After the penalty we immediately conceded a second, so it’s only normal that we crumbled, as a double like that would’ve felled a bull.

“It was by no means a bad performance, we tried to attack them and had several chances to get back into it.

“We have to acknowledge Juventus are probably stronger than any other team in the League. We prepared it well tactically, attacking Bonucci and Marchisio.

“It might seem strange that I’m talking about a fine performance after losing 3-0, but we tried to take the game to Juventus and believed in our chances.

“I don’t know why I was sent off. I was getting angry with my own player, Drame, and perhaps the referee misunderstood.”

The Orobici have now lost three on the trot against Fiorentina” data-scaytid=”16″>Fiorentina, Inter and Juventus.

“We have to improve in attack, as once again we put the ball in the box and created chances, but haven’t scored for three rounds. Admittedly, we were facing three teams that were decidedly stronger, but I am happy with the attitude of the team.

“I would’ve been annoyed if I had seen my players sit back, invite Juve forward and set up a wall, but the 3-0 really doesn’t reflect the result.”
