End of match

  • 95'
    FT: Atalanta 2-2 Man Utd!! All over in Italy and that's cruel on the hosts. Ilicic put Atalanta ahead and Ronaldo levelled on half-time. Zapata made it 2-1 just before the hour mark and the Italians were comfortable against a toothless United, but Ronaldo popped up at the death to get United out of jail again. Thanks for joining us and see you again soon!
