Overview
- Bologna, which won 1-0 in Bergamo on Sunday, locked up eighth place with one match to play and avoids an extra Coppa Italia round.
- Riccardo Orsolini came off the bench and scored in the 78th minute, finishing a back-post cross from Rowe.
- Atalanta goalkeeper Marco Carnesecchi made key first-half saves on Rowe and Castro, while Łukasz Skorupski stopped Nikola Krstovic in the 94th minute to preserve the win.
- Despite the loss, Atalanta secured a spot in next season's UEFA Conference League thanks to a three-point cushion and the head-to-head edge from a 2-0 win in the reverse fixture.
- One round remains, with Atalanta visiting Fiorentina and Bologna hosting champions Inter as the season closes.
