Atalanta secured a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Cremonese, with an early offensive surge proving decisive despite a late scare.

Atalanta claimed a crucial 2-1 Serie A victory against Cremonese at the New Balance Arena on February 9, 2026. Early goals from Nikola Krstovic and Davide Zappacosta proved decisive, though Morten Thorsby’s late strike for Cremonese created a tense finish.

Coming into the match, Atalanta sat comfortably in 7th position with 36 points, aiming to solidify their European ambitions with strong recent form. Cremonese, positioned 15th with 23 points, were desperate for points to escape the relegation battle, having struggled with recent results.

Atalanta started brightly, immediately pushing for an opener. Their dominance quickly paid off in the 13th minute. Giacomo Raspadori expertly threaded a pass to Nikola Krstovic, who slotted the ball past Emil Audero.

The home side continued to press with intensity. Just 12 minutes later, in the 25th minute, Atalanta doubled their lead. Mario Pasalic delivered a precise assist to Davide Zappacosta, who fired home a powerful finish.

Cremonese struggled to contain Atalanta’s attacking flow, managing only two shots on target throughout the entire match. Goalkeeper Emil Audero was called into action multiple times, making seven saves to keep the scoreline respectable.

At half-time, Atalanta held a commanding two-goal lead, reflecting their superior play and 2.07 expected goals. Cremonese needed a significant tactical shift to find a way back into the game.

The second half saw a more subdued start from Atalanta, but they remained largely in control. Cremonese introduced Filip Bonazzoli at the break, seeking more attacking impetus.

Atalanta defender Sead Kolasinac received a yellow card in the 49th minute for holding. Coach Gian Piero Gasperini then made early substitutions, replacing goalscorer Zappacosta with Raoul Bellanova and Kolasinac with Odilon Kossounou in the 59th minute.

Cremonese also continued to make changes, bringing on Agustín Grassi and Jamie Vardy in the 63rd minute. Atalanta kept creating chances, but a late twist came in the 90+1 minute when Berat Djimsiti had a goal disallowed for offside after a VAR review.

Deep into injury time, Cremonese finally found a response. In the 90+4 minute, Morten Thorsby headed home from a Sebastiano Luperto assist. This late strike reduced the deficit and created a nervy finish.

Atalanta dominated the statistics with 57% possession, 29 total shots, and 9 on target. Cremonese managed 12 total shots, but only 2 found the target. Atalanta also earned 13 corner kicks compared to Cremonese’s two.

The final whistle blew shortly after Thorsby’s goal, confirming Atalanta’s hard-fought 2-1 victory. This result strengthens their grip on a European qualification spot, while Cremonese remains in a precarious position in the lower half of the table.
