Ghanaian midfielder Ibrahim Sulemana has praised the outstanding team spirit within the Atalanta squad following their exciting 3-2 win over Genoa in the penultimate round of the Italian Serie A season.

The 21-year-old, making just his second league start of the campaign, put on a stellar performance at the Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferraris on Saturday, playing 81 crucial minutes and scoring a vital goal that spurred Atalanta’s comeback.

Genoa took the lead in the 37th minute through Andrea Pinamonti and maintained the advantage going into halftime. But Sulemana responded swiftly after the break, netting the equalizer just two minutes into the second half. Genoa briefly reclaimed the lead through Pinamonti once again, but late strikes from Daniel Maldini and Mateo Retegui turned the game around in favour of Gian Piero Gasperini’s side.

Sulemana, who was later named Man of the Match, expressed his delight on social media, posting:
“Happy to win MVP tonight. Congratulations to the team on the victory and the show of great team spirit.”

The Ghana international has now scored in back-to-back Serie A matches, including a crucial winner against AS Roma last week—a result that helped secure Atalanta’s return to the UEFA Champions League.

With growing confidence and consistent performances, Sulemana is proving to be a rising star for both club and country, signalling a promising future ahead.
