Atalanta drew 1-1 with Kazakh side Kairat Almaty in the Conference League. The home side fell behind after Marc Gual scored from a counter-attack. Nikola Krstovic came off the bench to bring his side level.

Speaking to Sky Sport Italia, Sarri said the goal conceded to the opponent was foolish. The coach believes the team could have won the match if they had not conceded it. Sarri said the squad has 10 injured players, and four others cannot be played for more than 30 minutes on the medical staff's advice. He added that Gianluca Scamacca was seen training yesterday for the first time since his injury.

Atalanta have not won in their last seven matches in Serie A and the Conference League. The team lost 3-0 to Parma on Monday. Sarri stressed that many matches have been played in a short period and that they have had to keep up this pace with a limited squad. The team is trying to adapt to a style of play that is very different from the one Gian Piero Gasperini built over a long period, and injuries have made this process even slower.
