Atalanta vs Club Brugge: Belgian Side Book Last 16 Spot After Lookman Misses Penalty

𒁏Chemsdine Talbi had dazzled observers last week with his tremendous dribbles, precise crosses and strong ability to win both attacking duels and recover the ball in defense. In addition, the Belgian-Moroccan player had delivered an assist to Ferran Jutglà in a man-of-the-match performance that helped Club Brugge to a 2-1 win over Atalanta in the first leg of their Champions League playoff. The 19-year-old attacking midfielder did it again Tuesday in the Italian city of Bergamo. Talbi broke the deadlock in Brugge’s first attack, putting the Belgian side ahead after only three minutes.
