Several Serie A sides were in action for pre-season friendlies today, as Atalanta struggled against their own Under-23 team, Udinese beat the Qatar national side, with Torino and Genoa victories too.
The summer is in full swing and that means a series of test matches for the teams we’ll soon see in the Italian top flight.
Atalanta made their debut under new coach Ivan Juric with an in-house game against their own Under-23 side, which will play in Serie C this season.
Inter transfer target Ademola Lookman was left out officially due to muscular problems.
It was tougher than expected for Atalanta, who only won 1-0 thanks to a late goal from substitute Charles De Ketelaere on the Mario Pasalic assist.

Udinese fared better in their 3-0 victory over the Qatar national team, as Keinan Davis, Iker Bravo and Jurgen Ekkelenkamp were on target.
Torino swept newly-promoted Cremonese aside 4-1 and the highlight was certainly this fantastic volley from Ivan Ilic well outside the area.
Gran gol di Ivan Ilic! 🚀

Che Adams pounced on a defensive error, Adrien Tameze nodded in and Bianay Balcot concluded the rout.
Cremonese were on target with De Luca, but their defending left a lot to be desired under heavy rain.
Genoa struggled to see off Mantova 3-2, as they had been losing 1-0 at the break, fighting back with Alessandro Marcandalli, Lorenzo Venturino and Morten Thorsby.
