Atalanta, Gasperini: "Immobile took a dive for first penalty shot"

Atalanta manager Gian Piero Gasperini took aim at the decision made by the referee for the first penalty shot: "These episodes have an impact. We lost the Coppa Italia final for one of these episodes. These are simple decisons that have become complicated. We have to constantly justify the errors and it is become a joke. Immobiled had a nice dive and we see this on a weekly basis in every stadium." Gasperini continued his criticism for the second penalty shot: "Ex-players wouldn't call that a penalty. Immobile purposely placed his foot in front of De Roon's foot, preventing him for playing the ball. It's a shame because it happened in the Coppa Italia final where it was covered up."
