Ghana winger Kamaldeen Sulemana was in dazzling form on Sunday afternoon as he opened his Serie A account for Atalanta BC in their emphatic 3-0 away win against Torino at the Stadio Olimpico di Torino.
The 23-year-old put up a man-of-the-match performance, scoring once and providing an assist to inspire the Bergamo-based club to another important victory in the Italian top-flight.
Atalanta broke the deadlock on the half-hour mark through Montenegro striker Nikola Krstovic, who latched onto a clever pass from Serbian playmaker Lazar Samardzic to give the visitors a deserved lead.
Just four minutes later, Sulemana showed his attacking instinct by reacting quickest to a loose ball inside the box to double Atalanta’s advantage.
The Ghanaian’s sharp finish left the Torino goalkeeper with no chance, marking his first goal since joining the club this summer.
Sulemana then turned provider moments later, setting up Krstovic for his second of the match to put the result beyond doubt before the interval.
The Black Stars winger was lively throughout the game, tormenting Torino’s backline with his pace, trickery, and direct play.
His display will be a huge boost for Atalanta as they push to maintain momentum in the Serie A campaign.
Sulemana’s breakthrough in Italy also comes as timely news for Ghana, with Black Stars coach Otto Addo monitoring his progress closely ahead of next month’s international assignments.
