Ademola Lookman played for Atalanta, who lost to Inter Milan 2-0 in the Italian Super Cup semi-finals on Thursday in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Inter won thanks to a double from Denzel Dumfries in the second half.
The Serie A winners will try to capture the trophy for the fourth time in a row.
The victor of Juventus vs. AC Milan’s second semi-final on Friday will face Inter in Monday’s final.
Although Simone Inzaghi, the manager of Inter, used his best eleven.
Gian Piero Gasperini of Atalanta, who was already without top scorer Mateo Retegui due to injury, unexpectedly left both Lookman and Charles De Ketelaere on the bench.
Atalanta keeper Marco Carnesecchi made two saves in the first half, first denying Lautaro Martinez with a reflex save from close range and then making a double save by parrying away a strong Martinez shot before swiftly getting back up to stop Federico Dimarco’s attempt from the rebound after Inter defender Alessandro Bastoni made a poor-headed clearance attempt, giving Giorgio Scalvini a close-range header that he sent directly at keeper Yann Sommer.
However, Dumfries scored the first goal four minutes into the second half and then the second goal in minute sixty-one.
