he has had some great weeks in the Juventus goal. Although his team was only fourth in the Serie A table before the match with Atalanta. Mainly due to the Polish goalkeeper, who saved Juventus many times and received excellent reviews for his performances.
This time, however, Szczęsny greatly exaggerated. In the match with Atalanta, to keep the 4th place in the table, the Polish goalkeeper left the goal in the 30th minute to cut the hosts’ action. He did it in almost the same way as in the match between the Polish national team and Senegal at the World Cup in 2018, when the Poles lost a goal after a disagreement with Jan Bednarek.

This time the effect could be very similar. Szczęsny missed the spades and hit his rival, leaving an empty goal behind him. Fortunately, his teammates, who managed to clear the ball, managed to secure it. Otherwise, Atalanta would have taken the lead. After all the action, the hosts demanded that the Polish goalkeeper be thrown from the field for a foul on the opponent. However, the judge did not even give the Pole a yellow card.
The former judge assessed the intervention of Wojciech Szczęsny
After the game was over, former judge Luca Marelli assessed his behavior in an interview with DAZN. – It’s a very complicated situation. You have to see all the action. At the moment of contact, two Juventus players are close to Szczęsny. However, there was no yellow card to punish Szczęsny’s careless behavior – stated Marelli.
During the break, Leonardo Bonucci addressed the whole situation. – We started well, but then we got higher. It’s hard to play like that. The game got complicated, but it was a good first half overall. We were very lucky with Szczęsny’s error. I was only looking at the ball and I was only thinking about kicking it – he said in an interview with DAZN.
She took the lead in the 76th minute after a great shot from Ruslan Malinowski. In this situation, Szczęsny had absolutely nothing to say. Ultimately, however, the game ended in a draw – Danilo scored in the 92nd minute.
Thus, he remained in the 4th place in the league table, the last entitlement to play in the group stage of the Champions League. However, he loses 9 points to the leader of Milan.
