Lookman inspires Atalanta to crucial win over Roma

Atalanta's European push received a significant boost on Sunday night, as Ademola Lookman produced arguably his most complete performance of the season to see off a stubborn Roma side at the Gewiss Stadium.

The Nigerian forward opened the scoring inside the first quarter-hour with a driven finish from the edge of the box, before turning provider in the second half as Atalanta doubled their lead. Roma pulled a goal back late on, but Lookman's early influence had already settled the contest.

It continues a productive run of form for the 27-year-old, who has now been directly involved in double-digit goal contributions across his last ten appearances in all competitions, and further strengthens his case as one of the most in-form wide forwards in Serie A this season.
