AS Roma's win keeps them in the track of Inter, the current leader in the Serie A. Roma had a strong start to the season, but struggled against Atalanta. The visitors took the lead shortly after the break, with Ederson opening the score. The Brazilian player had a strong shot from close range.
Marten de Roon, who made the transfer from Atalanta to Roma during the summer, was left on the bench throughout the match. Roma fought back and equalised, but it was not until the last minute of regular time that Mario Hermoso scored the equaliser. The winning goal was scored by Matias Soule, who was assisted by Paulo Dybala.
