Nesta disillusioned with coaching

On the night of May 4, Monza lost 0-4 to Atalanta, officially relegated to Serie B for the 2025/26 season.

Nesta and Monza were relegated 3 rounds early.

After 35 rounds, coach Alessandro Nesta and his team are at the bottom of the table with only 15 points, 12 points away from safety, while there are only 3 matches left in the season. The Brianteo team had to be relegated to Serie B after 3 seasons of dominating the top flight of Italy.

With a reputation as one of the greatest central defenders in history, Nesta was expected to become a talented coach. However, since becoming a coach, the former Italian player has only led second-tier teams in the US and Italy, and both seasons ended in the bottom half of the rankings.

In the 2024/25 season, Nesta was sacked by Monza after winning just 3 out of 20 Serie A matches. In February, the 49-year-old legend was re-elected as captain by Monza players to replace Salvatore Bocchetti. However, the former Milan midfielder quickly caused the club to be relegated.

Returning to the Monza vs Atalanta match, the visitors showed their superior strength. Charles De Ketelaere shone with a double in just the first 23 minutes. In the 12th minute, he skillfully dribbled past two defenders before calmly scoring the opening goal. In the 23rd minute, De Ketelaere took advantage of a mistake by Monza's defense to score the second goal.

In the second half, Ademola Lookman sealed Monzan's fate with a third goal after a neat run and finish.
