Atalanta ended Stuttgart's impressive year-long unbeaten home run with a 2-0 victory in the Champions League, marking Stuttgart's eighth consecutive failure to win at home in major European competitions. Second-half goals from Ademola Lookman and Nicolo Zaniolo sealed the win, with Lookman scoring his goal after a key assist from Charles De Ketelaere, who was substituted in at half-time. Despite Stuttgart's efforts, including a close chance from Deniz Undav, they struggled to break through Atalanta's defense, which has yet to concede a goal this season in the tournament. Atalanta's win lifted them to ninth in the standings with eight points, while Stuttgart dropped out of playoff positions, sitting at 27th with just four points. The defeat highlights Stuttgart's ongoing challenges in European competitions, contrasting with their strong domestic performances. Atalanta's success further solidifies their reputation as a formidable team in both domestic and European competitions.
