Sponsored by:
ROME (AP) — Mateo Retegui scored four goals to lead Atalanta’s 5-0 demolition of Hellas Verona in Serie A on Saturday.
The Italy striker took his league-leading tally to 20 goals for the season after scoring a first-half hat trick before adding his fourth after the break. The second-leading scorer is Fiorentina’s Moise Kean with 15 goals.
Retegui found the net in the 21st, 25th, 44th and 56th minutes. Ederson made it 3-0 in the 37th.
The lopsided win lifted Atalanta to within one point of Inter Milan in second. Leader Napoli is four points ahead of third-placed Atalanta.
AC Milan played Empoli later Saturday before Torino hosts Genoa.
