Roma fall short as Atalanta hold firm

Roma suffered a frustrating defeat away to Atalanta, failing to find a way back into the game.
The decisive moment came early, when Giorgio Scalvini struck from close range to give Atalanta the lead. It was a setback Roma never truly recovered from, as the visitors struggled to break down the disciplined and well-organised defence of La Dea.
