Roma-Atalanta 0-2, the report cards
Meatballs 6.5 – A couple of important saves when it counts, especially at the beginning, to avoid the worst. Not difficult, but safe.
Kossounou 6.5 – Frightening regularity at certain levels, to which he was evidently already accustomed in Leverkusen. It’s too early to say, but the impression is that the 25 million ransom will be spent very well.
(84’ Djimsiti of)
He 6 – A bit struggling on Dovbyk, who goes away on a couple of occasions but doesn’t punish him.
Kolasinac 6.5 – More than a few risks due mainly to his impetuosity, but it is certainly not a coincidence: he wants to charge up the team and keep them on track, he sends important messages when it counts.
Bellanova 6 – Present above all in the pushing phase, a couple of times it also appears inside the area.
Ederson 6.5 – Never loses clarity.
De Roon 7 – He goes to kick a loose ball on the edge of the area, finds a deflection, but the goal is all his. And it is of an incalculable weight.
Ruggeri 5.5 – Not his best evening, lacking a bit in the push phase.
(54’ Square 6.5 – Quite the opposite: he hammers the lane with his foot reversed and then delivers the cross to double the lead.)
De Ketelaere 5.5 – The physicality of Roma’s defense suffers and has less impact than usual.
(63’ Brescianini 6.5 – He has more athletic impact than those preceding him on the pitch and manages to be decisive.)
Retegui 5.5 – A few balls inside the area that were very difficult to manage, especially thanks to the attention Hummels put in to contain them.
(54’ Samardzic 6 – Maybe he doesn’t have peaks, but he has an important consistency that he manages to put on the field.)
Lookman 5.5 – It also fits centrally after the change but never manages to make an impact, too little space.
(63’ Zaniolo 7 – Goal from an ex after a myriad of whistles: more than a few stones are raised in the final.)
All. Gritti 8 – This is the victory of the technical staff first of all, also of the strong choices: removing such a trident after an hour is a gesture of great courage by the Gasperini (in the stands)-Gritti (on the bench) tandem. Because it’s true Celik’s back, it’s true that Roma has been in decline, but this success is the result of knowing how to make tough decisions at the right time.
