Roma head coach Rudi Garcia has praised the performance of defender Rafael Tolói in Saturday’s 3-1 win against Atalanta.
The 23 year-old, who is on loan from São Paulo, was making just his second start for the Giallorossi, but looked comfortable alongside fellow Brazilian Leandro Castán.
“Against Torino he already had a great performance, beaten only by a world class Ciro Immobile goal,” Garcia told Sky Sport Italia.
“Tonight he showed how good he is at reading the game, anticipating passes and is strong technically and physically.”
