The hosts continued their onslaught, netting a third goal in the 14th minute. Charles De Ketelaere showcased his skill, maneuvering on the right flank before curling a shot into the far corner.

Lookman was instrumental in extending Atalanta’s lead, scoring their fourth goal with a powerful drive into the box.

He then completed his remarkable first half by finishing off a swift team move with a simple tap-in, bringing his tally to two goals and two assists before the break.

Although Amin Sarr managed to score a consolation goal for Verona in the 42nd minute, Atalanta remained in control, adding a final goal through Retegui in the second half, securing an impressive 6-1 win.
