The Slovenian forward opened the scoring on 17 minutes, adding two more in quick-fire succession eight minutes after the break. Gian Piero Gasperini's Atalanta hit back after last weekend's shock defeat to lowly SPAL, following a draw against Inter Milan. "Ilicic is decisive, not only in the penalty area, he is a continuous creator," said Gasperini. In-form Ilicic pounced on an early error from Torino defender Diego Laxalt, with Gosens volleying in the second just before the half hour. Torino were in disarray after Izzo was sent off for a second yellow card.
