It was just the second defeat of the season for Thiago Motta&#8217;s side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mateo Retegui notched his league-leading 22nd goal of the season from the penalty spot after a handball in the first half and Marten de Roon added a second right after the break for Atalanta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Davide Zappacosta steered in a third for Gian Piero Gasperini&#8217;s side before Ademola Lookman&#8217;s deflected strike completed a thumping victory. Fourth-placed Juventus are now nine points adrift of Inter and could be overtaken by Lazio, who host Udinese on Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;It was an unimaginable result for many, but it was the perfect performance from us,&#8221; Gasperini told DAZN, suggesting an unlikely tilt at the Scudetto for the traditionally small, provincial club was not beyond them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;People need to dream. We must never stop them from dreaming. We may say it&#8217;s impossible, but if you believe enough, things can become possible.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Roma continued their resurgence under Claudio Ranieri as Matias Soule&#8217;s goal after only 22 seconds was enough to secure a 1-0 win at Empoli for their fifth successive league victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 73-year-old Ranieri has brought stability to a club that sacked Daniele De Rossi in September and then moved on from his successor Ivan Juric less than two months later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Roma are unbeaten in 12 games in Serie A since mid-December, rising from just above the relegation places into contention for Europe next season. They are four points behind Bologna in sixth, which offers a spot in the UEFA Conference League.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.besoccer.com\/match\/juventus-fc\/atalanta\/202525485\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Atalanta put on a dominant display against Juventus in Serie A on Sunday, sealing an emphatic 4-0 victory<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":343,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-342","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/342","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=342"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/342\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":344,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/342\/revisions\/344"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/343"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=342"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=342"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=342"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
