AS Roma:
After a mediocre series with two draws in the league and the historic 7-1 cup low against Sampdoria, the audience in Rome was ready for a victory. Last weekend, it came in the away match at the last minute in Chievo. Already after eighteen minutes, there was 0-2 on the scoreboard by goals from El Shaarawy and Dzeko and it was clear that the three points were in, especially in the second half gave Roma hardly any opportunities.
On Tuesday, AS Roma played its first game in the knockout phase of the Champions League and did so successfully. De Rossi did not have many minutes after his injury but was allowed to play a full match again. In the first half there was no real threat from either side but there were already some small chances for the Romans and a shot at Dzeko’s post. In the second half, 19-year-old Nicolo Zaniolo stood for Roma, he made two goals in a short time and became the youngest Italian ever to make two in one Champions League game. His third and fourth goal in 2019 is again from six basic places. Because Porto made the important goal, Roma is far from ready, but has made a good move.
