Credited with assist in draw
Kolasinac was subbed out in the 84th minute of Friday's 1-1 draw versus Canada. He assisted once to go with two crosses (one accurate) and one chance created before exiting the match.
Analysis: Kolasinac set up Bosnia's lone goal with a header that allowed Jovo Lukic to find the back of the net. The defender was heavily involved on defense as well, and he made a clearance off the line early in the second half that could have changed the outcome of the game. Kolasinac was subbed off after experiencing cramps, but he's likely to be available to play versus Switzerland on Thursday, June 18.
Subs in late versus Bologna
Kolasinac (lower leg) played just two minutes, completing two passes, in Sunday's 1-0 loss to Bologna.
Analysis: Kolasinac was available but saw limited action because of his subpar fitness. He'll look to work on it in the next few days and challenge Honest Ahanor in the season final versus Fiorentina on Friday. He has registered four tackles (one won), four interceptions and one clearance in his last five showings (four starts), with no clean sheets.
Bench option Sunday
Kolasinac (lower leg) is on the bench for Sunday's clash against Bologna.
Analysis: Kolasinac has been included in the squad despite the knock that had left him as a late doubt heading into the weekend, with the staff remaining hopeful he can contribute despite not being at 100 percent as Atalanta navigate a critically depleted defensive situation. His presence on the bench is a welcome development for a side already without Isak Hien through suspension and Odilon Kossounou through injury.
