My Ultimate Gacha System-Chapter 303 - 292: Atalanta vs Roma II
15’ - 28’ |
Roma respond with increased urgency and their wingers push higher while their midfielders commit more players forward during attacking phases, and the match opens up as both teams trade possession without either establishing sustained control.
In the twenty-eighth minute Roma equalize from a quick transition that catches Atalanta’s defensive line too high up the pitch.
A cleared corner travels to Roma’s midfielder thirty yards from his own goal and his first touch is forward rather than back, and suddenly Roma have numbers running at Atalanta’s retreating defense while the home team’s shape is stretched from the corner routine.
The through ball arrives perfectly weighted between Scalvini and Djimsiti where neither can reach it without risking a foul, and Roma’s striker collects with space opening ahead while Musso comes off his line to narrow the angle.
The finish is calm and composed — a low shot placed across Musso toward the far post where the goalkeeper’s dive can’t reach — and the ball settles into the net while the away section erupts with sustained noise.
GOAL: ATALANTA 1-1 ROMA (28’)
Roma’s players don’t celebrate extensively and instead jog back toward the halfway line while gesturing for increased pressure, and their coach is animated on the touchline calling for his team to maintain the intensity that created the equalizer.
Commentary Booth
"Roma are level!" the commentator calls. "Quick thinking from the midfielder, perfectly weighted through ball, and a composed finish past Musso. Game on at the Gewiss!"
"That’s the danger of committing too many forward on set pieces," his colleague notes. "Atalanta had everyone in Roma’s box for that corner, and when it’s cleared they’re vulnerable on the counter. Clinical from Roma."
29’ - 36’ |
The match opens up properly now with both teams committing numbers forward during attacking phases while defensive transitions happen at speed, and chances arrive for both sides without either converting until the thirty-sixth minute.
Demien receives a pass from de Roon under pressure near the edge of the penalty area with a Roma midfielder tight against his back, and rather than trying to turn he shields the ball with his body for two seconds while scanning his options.
「LEGENDARY SKILL ACTIVATED」
N’Golo Kanté — Everywhere at Once
The pressure increases as a second Roma player arrives to close down the space, and Demien’s decision comes in the moment between the two defenders converging — he spins sharply away from both challenges using his body to create separation while his first touch takes the ball onto his right foot twenty-two yards from goal.
「LEGENDARY SKILL ACTIVATED」
Paul Pogba — Long Switch Flair
The shooting lane opens for less than a second before bodies close it, and Demien strikes low across the turf with the technique from training — contact point exact, follow-through controlled — while the muscle memory from Wednesday’s extra shooting practice guides the execution.

Finesse Curler (Epic)
The ball skims across the grass and never rises above knee height, and the trajectory takes it past the diving goalkeeper’s outstretched hand before slipping inside the far post.
GOAL: ATALANTA 2-1 ROMA (36’)
The stadium shakes with noise that builds in seconds from the moment the ball crosses the line, and Demien turns away from the goal with his fists clenched briefly at his sides before teammates arrive to surround him.
He doesn’t sprint to the corner or celebrate wildly, and instead his expression stays controlled while the Curva Nord bounces as one mass behind him creating sustained thunder that doesn’t drop.
Commentary Booth
"GOAL! Walter restores Atalanta’s lead with a brilliant strike!" the commentator shouts. "Under pressure from two defenders, he creates space with a sharp turn and fires low into the far corner! What composure from the young midfielder!"
"Outstanding technique," his colleague adds as replays begin. "Watch how he shields the ball first, waits for the exact moment to spin, and the finish is placed perfectly. The goalkeeper has no chance once it’s struck. Two-one Atalanta."
37’ - 45’ |
Roma push forward desperately before halftime trying to equalize again while Atalanta defend their lead through compact organization, and the final minutes of the half become stretched as both teams commit players forward when attacking.
The fourth official raises his board showing two minutes of added time, and Roma send one final cross into Atalanta’s penalty area that Scalvini heads clear before the referee checks his watch. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

The dressing room is controlled when the team enters and players move to their positions while water bottles are distributed and towels are passed around, and Gasperini waits for everyone to settle before stepping forward near the tactical board.
"Tighter defensive line," he says without raising his voice. "When we win the ball, transition quick. They’re committed forward now which means space behind them."
He taps the board once where the space would exist behind Roma’s fullbacks when they push high.
"Forty-five minutes," he continues. "Stay focused."
46’ - 61’ |
The second half begins with Roma pressing desperately because they need points for European qualification and a draw does nothing for their position, and their wingers stay high while their fullbacks push forward repeatedly creating numerical advantages on the flanks.
Crosses flood into Atalanta’s penalty area and Scalvini and Tolói head clear repeatedly while their aerial dominance prevents clear chances, and Musso commands his area with confidence by claiming high balls and organizing his defense vocally.
In the sixty-first minute Atalanta kill the match.
Roma win a corner on the left side and the delivery swings toward the near post where bodies converge, but Tolói rises highest and heads the ball clear with power that sends it traveling forty yards downfield where Lookman is positioned near the halfway line.
Lookman collects the clearance in stride with space opening ahead because Roma’s entire team has committed forward for the corner, and he drives toward the penalty area at pace while only two Roma defenders scramble back desperately.
As he reaches the edge of the box Lookman looks up once and sees Scamacca making a run across the defender’s blind side, and the square pass arrives low and hard across the six-yard box where Scamacca meets it with his right foot.
The finish is clinical — first-time strike placed inside the near post — and the goalkeeper has no chance to react before the ball crosses the line.
GOAL: ATALANTA 3-1 ROMA (61’)
The Gewiss Stadium roars approval while Scamacca wheels away with both arms raised, and Lookman chases him down before jumping on his back in celebration while the rest of the team arrives to join them.
Commentary Booth
"GOAL! Atalanta extend their lead and that should be the match!" the commentator shouts. "Counter-attack from the corner, Lookman with the driving run, and Scamacca finishes clinically! Three-one to Atalanta!"
"Game over," his colleague declares. "Roma committed everything to that corner and they’re caught completely exposed on the break. Perfect execution from Atalanta."
62’ - 74’ |
Roma’s urgency fades visibly after the third goal and their attacks become disorganized while Atalanta control possession through patient circulation in midfield, and the crowd’s noise shifts from sustained intensity to celebratory atmosphere.
At seventy-four minutes the fourth official’s board goes up on Atalanta’s sideline.
Number 28 — Demien Walter
Number 88 — Gianluca Pasalic
The crowd stands and applauds as Demien jogs toward the touchline, and he claps once toward the Curva Nord before Pasalic arrives to exchange a brief touch of hands.
Demien walks to the bench and sits beside Gasperini who nods once without speaking, and the match continues with Atalanta maintaining control through the final sixteen minutes.
75’ - 90’+3’ |
The final fifteen minutes are controlled and professional with Atalanta keeping possession through short passes in their own half while Roma’s press lacks conviction, and when the fourth official signals three minutes of added time the outcome is already decided.
The referee checks his watch one final time before raising the whistle to his lips.
Fweeeeeetttttttt! Fweeeeeetttttttt! Fweeeeeetttttttt!
FULL TIME: ATALANTA 3-1 ROMA
Atalanta’s players raise their arms toward the Curva Nord while the home supporters continue celebrating, and Gasperini claps briefly before walking down the tunnel without extended celebration.
The scoreboard confirms it.
Three points.
Champions League qualification nearly secured.

The panel fades and he stands to head toward the showers, but Gasperini enters before he can move and the room quiets immediately.
The coach stands in the center and his expression is serious rather than celebratory, and when he speaks his voice carries clearly.
"Wednesday. Rome. Coppa Italia final. Everything we’ve worked for."
He taps the doorframe twice with his knuckle and walks back out.
