Gasp returned to the Bergamo stadium amidst the applause, chants and banners of the Curva Nord ultras but was defeated in the tactical duel with his pupil Palladino, his former player from his time at Genoa.

Atalanta raised its score to 25 points in eighth place, continuing its bright period under the supervision of its new coach, Rafaeli Palladino, who led it to a seventh victory in 10 matches in all competitions, compared to three defeats.

On the other hand, Roma's balance froze at 33 points in fifth place, wasting the opportunity for Inter to temporarily participate in second place.

Atalanta dedicated its knot to Roma by defeating them for the fourth time in a row, the sixth in the last seven matches, to one draw.

The Bergamo team owes the victory to its defender Giorgio Scalvini, who scored the only goal of the match in the 12th minute.

Referee Michael Fabry confirmed the goal after returning to video assistant referee (VAR) after suspicions of a handball.
