Atalanta coach Gian Piero Gasperini was delighted with their 2-1 win over Napoli.

Dries Mertens had given Napoli the lead, but Duvan Zapata and Mario Pasalic turned it around for the visitors.

“Napoli were excellent in the first half and had the chances to make it 2-0, at which point it would've been difficult," Gasperini told Sky Sport Italia.

“We stayed in there, threw on the options we had on the bench including Josip Ilicic and after the equaliser, we kept riding the momentum."

Gasperini was again sent off from the touchline for dissent.

“I protested because I thought it was a free kick on the edge of the box, but I didn't leave the technical area. It's not easy for Coaches to just stand there with hands by our sides during these moments."
