AS Roma moved into second place in the Serie A standings after securing a victory over Sassuolo on Sunday. The win lifted Roma above their rivals and put them in a strong position early in the 2026/27 season.
Atalanta manager Gian Piero Gasperini dismissed suggestions that Inter Milan were closely monitoring the match, laughing off the idea of an Inter watching brief. Gasperini's comments came after his own team's recent fixtures, but the focus remained on Roma's climb up the table.
The match at the Stadio Olimpico saw Roma dominate possession and create several chances, though the final score was not disclosed in the initial report. The result extends Roma's unbeaten run and adds momentum ahead of their upcoming fixtures.
