Despite Dybala’s great goal, Roma fell against Sassuolo

In a week that Mourinho described as “dangerous”, Roma went from the joy of beating Real Sociedad in the Europa League to crashing against Sassuolo and then facing the second leg against San Sebastian with the doubts of a team that has conceded four goals. home goal.

Mou’s confident team, impregnable in their private Colosseum, succumbed to a mid-table Sassuolo who scored three goals in the first half and the last in the second in a game with rarefied air.

And it is that the sanction that was finally imposed on Mourinho for two games resulted in a huge white scarf from all of the Rome Olympics as a complaint against the Italian Football Federation and in support of its leader.

The Portuguese was forced to rotate after Thursday’s match and injuries. He sat down Mancini and Dybala, Cristante completed a series of yellow cards, Pellegrini and Belloti were injured. It was not the eleven type of Mou, who until now, despite the losses, had carried on the results at home.

But that’s it a Rome without Dybala is much less Rome. Without their broke leader, the ‘Loba’ cannot be found, they do not fuel, they find it difficult to oxygenate themselves, especially against teams with such an offensive presence as this Sassuolo, who with Berardi and Laurienté have torn apart the Roman defense.

In less than twenty minutes Laurienté, one of the best players in Serie A, had already completed his brace and put the local defense in check. The ‘neroverdi’ group was an unstoppable vortex in the area, indefensible for an outdated Rome.

He managed to stabilize after the two hits received and settle down in the game. He cuts the distance with a goal from Zalewski which encourages the Giallorossi. A mirage that didn’t last long, until Kumbulla decided to take off the mantle of a hero he wore on Thursday against Real Madrid to put on a villain’s uniform and, with an unjustifiable kick, with no ball in the way, caused a penalty against and his expulsion to the very verge of rest.

Berardi doesn’t fail from eleven meters and scores the 1-3, leaving Roma half dead. He didn’t condemn it because Mourinho called Dybala to try to make up for the wrong in 45 minutes, a challenge almost at the peak of a miracle. But the ‘Jewel’, given that it is located in the Italian capital, does not understand the pressures. It didn’t take long to make him the game and put the ball in the same squad to give wings to his team.

Sassuolo got nervous, but numerical superiority did the rest. A quarter of an hour from the end Pinamonti scores the fourth and last goal taking advantage of the assist of a superb Laurienté. Wijnaldum made his debut as a goalscorer in the discounted Roma red shirt, but the miracle was already impossible.

The collected result triggers the alarms of a Roma that remained out of the Champions League positions after a crazy game with seven goals, which without time to regret will defend the 2-0 of the first leg at the Reale Arena and which will return to the ring in Serie A with an entire Rome derby.
