Gasperini singled out Lookman for taking a penalty, which he missed, in the tie\u2019s second leg.<\/p>\n<p>Lookman, the reigning Atalanta player of the season and 2024 Africa Player of the Year, came on as a substitute, with Atalanta trailing 3-0. He scored 35 seconds into the second half but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2025\/02\/19\/ucl-lookman-scores-misses-penalty-as-brugge-eliminate-atalanta\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">missed a penalty in the 61st minute<\/a> that could have sparked an unlikely comeback.<\/p>\n<p>Gasperini has criticised Lookman\u2019s decision to take the penalty in a post-match press conference, stating that Lookman was not the designated penalty taker and had a \u201cterrible record\u201d even in training.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLookman was not supposed to take that penalty; he is one of the worst penalty takers I\u2019ve ever seen,\u201d Gasperini said in an after-match press conference.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe has a frankly terrible record; even in training, he converts very few of them. [Mateo] Retegui and [Charles] De Ketelaere were there, but Lookman, in a moment of enthusiasm after scoring, decided to take the ball, and that was a gesture I did not appreciate at all.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Reacting, Lookman took to social media to express his disappointment with Gasperini\u2019s comments, which he felt were disrespectful and hurtful. He emphasised his commitment to the club and highlighted the difficult moments he endured at Atalanta.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt saddens me on a day like this to have to write this statement\u2014most of all because of what we have achieved together as a team and as a city.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBeing singled out in the manner I have been not only hurts but feels deeply disrespectful, not least because of the immense hard work and commitment I have always put in each and every day to help bring success to this club and to the incredible fans of Bergamo.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn truth, I have dealt with many difficult moments during my time here\u2014the majority of which I have never spoken about\u2014because, in my opinion, the team must always be protected and must come first.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis makes what happened last night even more hurtful. Along with our incredible fans, we as a team are hurting too with last night\u2019s result. During the match, the designated penalty taker instructed me to take the penalty and to support the team<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI took responsibility in the moment to do so. Life\u2019s about challenges and turning pain into power, which I\u2019ll continue to do,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Coach Gasperini has criticised Lookman\u2019s decision to take the penalty Ademola Lookman has publicly responded to criticism from Atalanta manager Gian Piero Gasperini following the team\u2019s 5-2 aggregate loss to Club Brugge in the UEFA Champions League.
