Kone and Paredes put on an excellent performance in the midfield. On the downside, Celik falls short. Despite Roma’s spirited battle, it simply isn’t enough. Atalanta triumphs with a 0-2 victory at the iconic Olimpico Stadium, thanks to the goals of De Roon and the outstanding Zaniolo (both of them managed deflected shots). The star of the match was undoubtedly Mats Hummels, who seems to be regaining his form after a challenging start to the season. Koné and Paredes at the center of the field. Dovbyk squanders too much. TEAM CHANGES MAKES NO IMPACT.
