Stanisic Regrets Space Given to Lookman in UEL Final

In a press conference, Bayern Munich right-back Josip Stanisic reflected on the UEFA Europa League final held in May 2024 in Dublin, where Atalanta triumphed over Bayer Leverkusen with a score of 3-0. Stanisic, who played in the first half, specifically mentioned the impact of Ademola Lookman, who was instrumental in Atalanta's victory by scoring an impressive hat trick.

Stanisic admitted feeling hurt by the loss and recognized that he had given Lookman too much space during the match, which he considered a defensive mistake in a crucial game. Lookman's performance not only helped Atalanta secure their first European trophy but also broke Bayer Leverkusen's record of 51 matches without a loss.

Following the final, Lookman completed a move to Atlético Madrid during the winter transfer period and is set to play against Tottenham Hotspur in the next UEFA Champions League match.
