Soccer-Roma's Garcia fully focused on Atalanta

ROME, April 18 (Reuters) - AS Roma coach Rudy Garcia is focusing only on Sunday's game against relegation-threatened Atalanta and is not thinking about the results of his team's Serie A rivals.

"My only concern is Atalanta," Garcia told a news conference on Saturday.

"They have done well as of late and have greatly improved their chances at avoiding relegation at the end of the season."

Roma have dropped to third place in the standings for the first time since Garcia started coaching them last year, trailing city rivals Lazio, who face runaway leaders Juventus on Saturday, by one point.
