Atalanta 0 - 2 Genoa: Genoa win brings end to losing streak
Posted Monday, January 11, 2016 by PA
Genoa arrested an alarming run of defeats by beating Atalanta 2-0 at the Stadio Atleti Azzurri d'Italia.
The Grifone, who arrived in Bergamo on the back of five straight Serie A losses, dominated their Ligurian hosts.
It may have taken former Bolton midfielder Blerim Dzemaili until the 79th minute to open the scoring when converting Tomas Rincon's cross, but the points were made safe only two minutes later.
Leonardo Pavoletti's seventh league goal of a troubled 2015-16 campaign ensured Genoa reached Sunday evening four points clear of 18th-placed Frosinone and the drop zone. Atalanta, meanwhile, are 11th at the halfway stage.
