Evan Ndicka cut a defiant and confident figure after Roma's hard-fought 1-1 draw with Atalanta at the Stadio Olimpico. The imposing center-back was clear in his assessment: despite sharing the points, Roma were the superior side on the night.

Speaking post-match, Ndicka emphasized the squad's unwavering focus amidst a week of external noise and Serie A drama. "We're calm," he stated. "We wanted to win, but we played a good game against a good team. Tonight wasn't easy; we were more dominant than Atalanta."

His comments reflect a team locked in on the ultimate prize—Champions League qualification. Ndicka dismissed any notion that off-field controversies were a distraction, highlighting the group's singular mentality. "We don't think too much about these things; we're very focused on the pitch. Our job is to play good football and win games... If we continue like this, we can achieve great things this season."

Looking ahead, the defender's optimism was palpable. With the race for the top four heating up, Ndicka backed his team to finish strong: "What we did tonight is right; let's keep going. We'll win plenty of games until the end of the season." For a player relishing his role in the capital, the mission is simple: maintain focus, dominate performances, and secure a coveted spot among Europe's elite.
