The Italian scored twice to lead Atalanta to a surprising 3-0 victory at Anfield. He also contributed to the third goal by setting up Marten de Roon, whose shot was deflected to Mario Pasalic, a former Chelsea player, and scored into an open net.
This result has put Atalanta in a strong position for the semi-finals, although they still have to face Jurgen Klopp’s team in the second leg next week. Back in his home country, the Italian has been in much better form, scoring 11 goals in 32 games across all competitions.
His recent double against Liverpool means he has scored six goals in his last six matches. The text also asks whether West Ham made a mistake by letting Scamacca leave.
A move never materialized, and Scamacca ended up joining PSV a year later. In 2017, he returned to Italy with Sassuolo but spent the next four seasons on loan before breaking into the first team in 2021.
