Atalanta turn the tide to beat Chelsea in Champions League battle
- On Dec 9, Atalanta sealed a 2-1 comeback victory over Chelsea at Gewiss Stadium, with goals from Gianluca Scamacca and Charles De Ketelaere.
- Having dominated the first half, Chelsea held the lead at the interval, but Atalanta returned from the break with far more intent, shifting momentum to the hosts.
- In the 55th minute Scamacca headed Atalanta level from a De Ketelaere cross in the six-yard box, and seven minutes to play De Ketelaere's shot was parried by Robert Sanchez into the net.
- Chelsea now sit on 10 points in the knockout-phase play-offs and will likely need wins in remaining matches, including a January trip to Napoli, to avoid the play-offs.
- Ademola Lookman's disallowed tap-in stood after the break, while an early scramble saw a cross hit Robert Sanchez and Josh Acheampong block a near-certain goal, and Chelsea pushed late but missed several chances.
