What a game in Italy, eight goals in Serie A.

Atalanta and Frosinone played a high-scoring Serie A match that ended in a 4-4 draw, featuring goals from players including Nikola Krstovic, Ederson, Elif Elmas, Romano Schmid, Giacomo Calo, and Aleksa Terzic. Croatian national team player Mario Pasalic entered the game for Atalanta in the 62nd minute. In other matches, Genoa defeated Venezia 1-0 thanks to a goal by Mikael Ellertsson, while Inter Milan secured a dramatic 2-1 victory over Fiorentina after trailing until stoppage time. Inter's win was sealed by Piotr Ziyechik's penalty kick in the 97th minute, following an equalizer by Marcus Thuram. The article notes that Petar Sucic played for Inter, while Leon Jakirovic made his first appearance on the bench, and Marin Pongracic started for Fiorentina before being substituted.

Mario Pasalic entered the match in the second half as Atalanta secured a 2-2 draw with Fiorentina in the ninth round of Italy’s Serie A. The contest took place in Florence, where the visitors initially held the advantage before conceding two goals in quick succession during the second period. Charles De Ketelaere opened the scoring for the team from Bergamo in the 41st minute, assisted by Nicola Zalewski. Fiorentina responded after the break, with Alieu Njie leveling the score in the 53rd minute. Eight minutes later, Joao Mario put the home side ahead. However, Atalanta avoided defeat thanks to Zalewski, who struck in the 74th minute following an assist from De Ketelaere to force the final result. Pasalic replaced Gianluca Gaetano in the 57th minute for the away side. Marin Pongracic was unavailable for Fiorentina due to a muscle injury in his right thigh. Italian media indicated he might return after the international break, having sustained the injury against Inter in the previous round. The league table shows Inter and Lazio tied at the top with 25 points each according to one report, while another account listed them with 22 points. Roma sits third with 21 points, followed by Como on 20 and AC Milan on 18. Atalanta currently occupies 12th place with 11 points. In other matches from the same round, Frosinone defeated Lecce 5-1 to climb into sixth position. Matteo Cichella scored in the 25th minute for Frosinone, while Giacomo Gallo converted a penalty in added time of the first half. Antonio Raimondo added a goal in the 59th minute, and Daniel Birligea scored twice, in the 72nd minute and the fourth minute of stoppage time. Joel Monteiro reduced the deficit for Lecce in the 82nd minute. Frosinone now has 17 points, whereas Lecce remains in 14th with nine points. Another high-scoring affair saw Atalanta draw 4-4 with Frosinone in a separate report, though this conflicts with the primary fixture details. In that account, Nikola Krstovic scored twice for Atalanta, while Ederson and Elif Elmas also found the net. For Frosinone, Romano Schmid scored twice, joined by Giacomo Calo and Aleksa Terzic. Pasalic came on in the 62nd minute in this version of events. Genoa beat Venezia 1-0 through a 25th-minute goal by Mikael Ellertsson. Toma Basic played until the 71st minute for the visitors, while Bartol Francic missed the game through injury. Inter also recorded a 2-1 victory over Fiorentina in a different reported fixture, winning via a late penalty. Petar Sucic entered for Inter in the 78th minute, and 18-year-old Leon Jakirovic featured on the bench for the first time in his career.
