Lookman eyes win over Sporting for disappointing loss to Bologna

Super Eagles and Atalanta midfielder, Ademola Lookman reflects on the defeat against Bologna while looking forward to a good game against Sporting CP in the UEFA Europa League round of 16 on Wednesday.
Lookman acknowledged that the game did not go Atalanta's way, adding that Bologna were able to mount a comeback in the second half because the Nerazzurri were not at their best
The 26-year-old stressed that there is no time to dwell on the defeat as they have to start immediate preparations for the first leg of the UEFA Europa League round of 16 against Sporting CP.
Speaking post-match to Atalanta's official website, Lookman said: "First half was very, very good. We were positive in our play, set the tempo, and then in the second half we didn't really come out same way we came out in the first half so for us it was kind of a game of two halves.
"Disappointment but another game on Wednesday so we can't really stay disappointed so we get ready for the next game.
"Two moments they capitalized on the moments and they scored. We are a team, we fight together, we win together, we lose together so onto the next game."
Lookman will be aiming to open his goal scoring account in this season's Europa League against Sporting CP, having fired blanks in his last five starts in the competition.
