Tullio Gritti, who stepped in as head coach for Atalanta during Gian Piero Gasperini’s suspension, celebrated a significant 2-0 victory over Roma at the Stadio Olimpico. Following the match, Gritti shared his thoughts on the team’s performance and the importance of this win.
“This is the victory of awareness,” Gritti stated. “The team has reached important heights. We suffered during the match; Roma is not a team that deserves just 13 points. They have strong players and demonstrated their quality.”
Addressing the league standings, Gritti noted the enthusiasm of Atalanta’s supporters: “The fans are right to sing ‘we will win the tricolor.’ We are now in a position that we have earned on the pitch.”
Reflecting on the current squad, he added, “This is one of the strongest Atalanta teams we’ve had in these nine years. But we don’t like to say that; for us, every team is strong.”
