Former Manchester City and Ivory Coast midfielder Yaya Touré has publicly praised Roma head coach Gian Piero Gasperini, with the gesture coming at the final whistle of a match. The Slovan coach approached Gasperini, took off his cap and greeted him with a smile, a simple act that the report describes as full of meaning: respect, esteem and recognition of an opponent's qualities.

Gasperini built his reputation early in Serie A and took Atalanta to the top of the game, bringing his football to the attention of the world. The article argues that Roma has allowed him to develop further. In its view, he has become a more complete coach, able to change his approach when needed, give the squad mental stability and communicate with a natural ease that makes a difference.
