Italian Cup: Atalanta dominant again with 6-1 win over Cesena, Roma routs Sampdoria

The Hindu  

Serie A leader Atalanta continued its domination of domestic football this season with another hefty victory in the Italian Cup albeit against second-division Cesena. Fresh from a club record 10th straight league victory, Atalanta — which lost the cup final to Juventus last year — showed no signs of easing up, even against lower league opposition. Atalanta coach Gian Piero Gasperini opted for a surprisingly strong starting lineup and Atalanta was 2-0 up in less than 10 minutes and 4-0 up by halftime following goals by Davide Zappacosta, De Ketelaere’s double and Samardzic’s first. Roma coach Claudio Ranieri steered his side to a morale-boosting victory over one of his many former clubs and avoided a potential upset against Sampdoria, which had already knocked out two Serie A teams.
