Historically Atalanta had a tradition of having perhaps the best youth talent development in Italy, I remember that some years ago many top Italian players started their careers in Atlanta, is still so ?Originally Posted by Sizzo

^ Tonight 1-1 against that Africa United team called Olympique Lyonnais! First in the Group E!
Well, Atalanta Bergamasca Calcio was born in 1907 and I've said "queen of Italian provincial clubs" because, among them, has the largest number of Serie A participations (11th in the perpetual ranking of Serie A since 1929, after Sampdoria). Atalanta won a Coppa Italia in 1963 and its firts participation in a European tournament dates back to 1963–64 European Cup Winners' Cup (eliminated by Sporting CP that won the cup). Other participations date back to the UEFA Cup tournaments of the 1980-1990s, with a historic semifinal of Winner's Cup in 1988, lost against Malines-Mechelen (when Atalanta was in Serie B). Btw, yes, the most well-known fact about Atalanta Bergamo is for sure its farm team, one of the best in Europe, because every year pops out young talents (the last are Gagliardini, Caldara, Conti, Kessie; the most famous are probably Scirea, Donadoni, Gabbiadini, Zaza, Bonaventura, Pazzini, Montolivo, Morfeo, Tacchinardi, Zappacosta).

In Maradona's auto-biography he wrote that when he played at Napoli the most hostile stadiums to them was the Hellas Verona and Atalanta ones, he wrote that their supporters keep shouting "terroni" and insulting them all match long.

Hahaha! Indeed, there's a fierce rivalry between the northern clubs and central-southern ones like Napoli or Roma; Juventus, Milan and Inter have many southern supporters (since Turin and Milan, or Genoa, are full of internal migrants from the Mezzogiorno) and then the worst opponents of Napoli et similia are provincial fans. Hellas and Atalanta supporters, moreover, are for sure 2 of the most Italian ardent "tifoserie" (they hate each other, after all haha, and if you involve also Brescia supporters you'll get a war!).In Maradona's auto-biography he wrote that when he played at Napoli the most hostile stadiums to them was the Hellas Verona and Atalanta ones, he wrote that their supporters keep shouting "terroni" and insulting them all match long.

Correct me if I am wrong but Atalanta and Livorno are famous for their leftist\antifa\communist Ultras, right?

Yes, it was so, in fact the rivalry with Hellas Verona or Lazio is also about politics. It should be said that there are no politicized ultras groups anymore, nowadays, in the organized supporters of Atalanta and do not forget there was also a Lega Nord/far right oriented group called Wild Kaos Atalanta. Btw the main ultras group was, for sure, the Brigate Neroazzurre, of leftist orientation.

FIFA fines Germany for Nazi chants at World Cup qualifier
FIFA fined the German soccer federation 32,000 Swiss francs ($33,000) on Monday because fans chanted Nazi slogans at a World Cup qualifying game in the Czech Republic.
The range of ”improper conduct” charges against Germany included fans encroaching on the field and setting off fireworks at the game in Prague, FIFA said.
German officials said the offensive fans did not buy tickets through official channels. Germany’s next away World Cup qualifier is on Thursday in Northern Ireland.
About 200 German supporters chanted slogans during their team’s 2-1 win and verbally abused one of the scorers, Timo Werner.
FIFA also fined the Czech federation 5,000 Swiss francs ($5,150) for crowd disorder.
FIFA’s attempts to crack down on fans chanting gay slurs saw seven national federations fined for incidents.
Argentina was ordered to pay 65,000 Swiss francs ($67,000), Panama 50,000 Swiss francs ($51,500), and Hungary 20,000 Swiss francs ($20,600). Other fines were for Chile (35,000 Swiss francs; $36,000); Ecuador (20,000 Swiss francs; $20,600), Brazil (10,000 Swiss francs; $10,300) and Mexico (10,000 Swiss francs; $10,300).
Uruguay’s federation was fined 25,000 Swiss francs ($25,750) for ”insulting chants” by fans at a home qualifier against Argentina.
FIFA imposed fines of 45,000 Swiss francs ($46,400) on the soccer bodies of Iran and Ukraine.
Iran was sanctioned for incidents at a home game against Syria, including a ”pre-match ceremony with religious chants” and improper conduct by fans.
Ukrainian fans were guilty of discrimination with chants and banners at a home game against Turkey.
European federations fined for discriminatory behavior by fans included Romania and Montenegro (each 25,000 Swiss francs; $25,750) and Serbia (20,000 Swiss francs; $20,600). Romania is also banned for one World Cup qualifier from using the National Stadium in Bucharest.
Nigeria was fined 30,000 Swiss francs ($31,000) for fan disorder at a 4-0 home win over Cameroon.
A ball boy being sent off counted in a charge against Honduras for failure in match organization against the United States, and resulted in a 5,000 Swiss franc ($5,150) fine.
Gabon was ordered to forfeit a qualifying game against Ivory Coast as a 3-0 loss. However, Ivory Coast – which leads Group C in Africa – already won the Sept. 2 game 3-0 in Libreville. Gabon was fined 6,000 Swiss francs ($6,200).
