Roma have gone into the break losing 1-0 in their Serie A meeting with Atalanta BC at the Stadio Olimpico this afternoon.
The Giallorossi started the match on the front foot and Edin Dzeko had their first attempt with an effort that was kept out by Marco Sportiello.
Miralem Pjanic was next to threaten for the hosts when he was slipped into the box and saw his low drive towards the near post turned behind by the keeper.
Roma continued to search for the breakthrough and Dzeko came close again when he was picked out inside the box by Daniele De Rossi and fired a volley narrowly over the bar.
However, it was Atalanta who took the lead with five minutes remaining in the first half as Alejandro Gomez surged towards the edge of the box, before curling a strike beyond the reach of Morgan De Sanctis and into the far corner.
