According to Italian Sky Sports, due to the damage to the runway at Bergamo Airport, Gasperini and the Atalanta team will have to change their flight plans.
The match between Shakhtar Donetsk and Atalanta will take place at a neutral venue – the Veltins-Arena in Gelsenkirchen, home of Schalke 04. It is reported that this morning, a plane arriving from Barcelona suffered a tire burst upon landing. While there were no injuries, the incident caused damage to the runway. Since the runway cannot be repaired in time, the Atalanta team will have to fly from Verona to Germany instead.
