Atalanta have responsibility not to disappoint: Gasperini ahead of PSG clash
Lisbon [Portugal], Aug 12 (ANI): Atalanta manager Gian Piero Gasperini has said that the club has a responsibility "not to disappoint" as they prepare for Champions League clash against Paris Saint Germain (PSG).

It's a football match but we have to represent our region in the best way possible," Goal.com quoted Gasperini as saying.
"We arrive in the best mental condition. We've got some very important results after the lockdown. We are proof that even a team without a European heritage can do well and achieve important goals through playing, enthusiasm and other things. We have a responsibility to ourselves not to disappoint. We want to continue to show that Atalanta can sit at the table of the biggest clubs," he added.
Atalanta are the only Italian team left in the Champions League.
