Ademola Lookman says Atalanta put up a big performance in the away win at Napoli.
Gian Piero Gasperini’s side defeated the league leaders 3-0 in their Serie A clash on Sunday afternoon.
Lookman played a crucial role in the victory, netting twice, with substitute Matteo Retegui also on target.
The Nigeria international said they can be happy with their performance in the game.

“It was a big performance from the team, we’re happy and three points away to the leaders is never easy, so we’re proud of that, he told DAZN.
Lookman was in Paris earlier this week for the Ballon d’Or ceremony, where he secured 14th place thanks largely to his hat-trick in the Europa League Final against Bayer Leverkusen.
The winger said the main focus is to keep helping the team and not individual accolade.
“Individual achievements are part of football, but this is a team game, my squad helps me a lot. I continue working and try to help the team when I can,” he added.

I m the happiest man today.
I have observed the solidarity when Super eagles players play against Napoli, they play their heart out in order to defeat Napoli. You don’t mess with the eales. God bless Nigeria.
I m proud to be a Nigerian. If not leadership problems who be the rest of the world?
Apoty things.
