Atalanta coach Gian Piero Gasperini was pleased with their 2-0 win over Monza on Monday.

The result - earned by goals from Rasumus Hojland and Marlon - sees La Dea go top of the Serie A table.

Atalanta have never been on top of the table alone, the lads deserve the praise, it's a nice thing for us and our fans. We'll try to make it last as much as possible," Gasperini told DAZN.

“The fans can enjoy this great moment, we know we have a lot of work ahead of the next games. We have a lot of options that are working well. Hojlund scored, Soppy played an excellent game, like Ederson and Lookman.

“Hojlund has interesting characteristics for a 19-year-old. He is a smart guy and I hope I'll help him improve with some advice.

“It's important to score goals because it's how you win games, last season we stopped scoring goals and that's why we didn't go forward. This team has different characteristics, this season we have more pace."
