Roma could not find a winner against a stubborn Atalanta side at the Stadio Olimpico.
Roma's faint Serie A title hopes suffered a major blow after Atalanta left the Stadio Olimpico with a hard-earned point on Saturday.
The Giallorossi, chasing a fifth successive league win to maintain the pressure on leaders Juventus, fell behind to a wonderful volley from Jasmin Kurtic in the 22nd minute with their only reply coming from leading scorer Edin Dzeko early in the second half.
Atalanta had already wasted a glorious second-minute opening, Hans Hateboer's goal-bound shot striking Antonio Rudiger, before they took the lead.
