“AS Roma” further continue to fight for a place in the top four of Serie A.
Jose Mourinho’s disciples lost 3:4 at home to the “Sassuolo” team.
Roma's “wolves” started the game tragically. After 18 minutes, Armando Lauriente already had a “double” in his account, and the guests led 0:2.
In the 26th minute, Nicola Zalewski narrowed the gap, but a crucial moment came at the end of the first half. Marash Kumbulla fouled Domenico Berardi. Shortly after a VAR review, the Albanian was sent off, and the Italian converted the penalty from 11 meters - 1:3.
Paulo Dybala tried to salvage the situation, but “Sassuolo” scored again and took the victory, despite a late consolation goal from Giorginio Wijnaldum.
Next week, an important Rome derby will take place between the teams of “Lazio” and “AS Roma”.
