Mario Pasalic opened the scoring for Atalanta against Venezia, but it was all about the magnificent Josip Ilicic assist, threaded through the eye of a needle.
La Dea made seven changes to the side that beat Juventus at the weekend and it hasn’t made them any weaker, with players like Ilicic and Luis Muriel coming in.
The opening goal in Bergamo was all about the Ilicic assist, which he threaded through a sea of legs, including a nutmeg on Tanner Tessmann.
Thread of a needle pass ✨
