7M - Atalanta eliminate Dortmund to reach Champions League last 16

Atalanta BC advanced to the Champions League last 16 after a dramatic 4-1 victory over Borussia Dortmund in the second leg, sealing a 4-3 aggregate win. Dortmund led the night 2-0, but Atalanta turned it around with goals from Gianluca Scamacca and Davide Zappacosta to level the tie by half-time, and Mario Pasalic gave Atalanta the lead in the tie. Karim Adeyemi equalised to keep Dortmund alive on aggregate, but Lazar Samardzic converted a stoppage-time penalty to send Atalanta through. The Italian side will now meet either Arsenal or Bayern Munich in the last 16. The win continues Atalanta's resurgence under coach Raffaele Palladino, who has steered them to a domestic unbeaten run in 2026.
