Atalanta has made a remarkable start to the Europa League final against Bayer Leverkusen. At the end of the first half, Gian Piero Gasperini's team leads 2-0.
Both goals for Atalanta were scored by Nigerian winger Ademola Lookman, achieving an extraordinary milestone.
Lookman is the first African footballer in history to score a brace in a European cup final.
He is also the third Nigerian to score in a European cup final, following Alex Iwobi in 2019 and Joe Aribo in 2022.
It is worth noting that this is Atalanta's first appearance in a European cup final.
