0 Juventus-Roma 1-0 “Turin breaks”

24 dicembre 2017
Stefano Sale
· As Roma Corner

The after-match press conference by Eusebio Di Francesco was by far the best we have seen from Roma last night. Just impeccable. He explained that his men were told to attack the Juve backline, pressing and squeezing them in their half, Strootman and De Rossi to tackle and prevent Miralem Pjanic from moving around in the middle of the park, Nainggolan to range around much closer to the Juve goal and try to fire shots at them, Perotti and El Sharaawy to fly on the wings and skittle around to assist Edin Dzeko in the middle of the penalty area. That was the game plan.

EDF was very swift to show his disappointment with Roma’s first half, he was very honest and clear about what he felt about it, that he has been working on the players’ mindset since appointed in the summer. Last night it was a big opportunity to show that this team have now developed a different approach and mentality in big games like this. He went on to remark that what he saw last night in the first half was just the opposite of his instructions he gave the team just before the match.

Alisson was by far man of the match. EDF was very annoyed at how the defence handled the Benatia goal incident, how the keeper made some incredible saves while the defense stayed completely still watching the Juve defender trying three times from the same spot until he was able to put it in the back of the net in total freedom. He voiced out that his wingers did not push on the wings, that Nainggolan never tried to get upfront, that the midfield was taken over by Pjanic and co. in absolute liberty, and of course, just went sarcastic at the biggest chances of all, as the night concluded with Schick unable to convert the most glorious opportunity, alone in front of Szczęsny in the very dying seconds. “He will score more important goals in the future”, his comment. EDF is definitely ready, now the team must follow.

Happy Christmas to all readers! Always Forza Roma!

0 TIMCup: Roma-Torino 1-2 “Knock out”

21 dicembre 2017
Stefano Sale
· As Roma Corner

Di Francesco thought even Team B could qualify Roma for the next round, but reality showed a different outcome. Too many changes at the back did not pay off. A complete new defense backline with Jesus and Moreno in the centre, Peres and Emerson on the wings, but they did not impress, especially in the first half.

In the midfield and forward things went sligtly better, with EL Sharaawy very active and unlucky not to score, lethal was that incredible strike to hit the crossbar..Schick worked ahard but did not shine even as a centreforward, and Cengiz on the wing did not sting. Gerson, Gonalons and Strootman looked overwhelmed by the Torino counterparts in the midlle of the park, things were not going to improve unless something changed.

An in fact, the second half was quite different with Perotti, Pellegrini and Dzeko on, but the Bosnian missed a crucial penalty that could take Roma back on track. Why did Perotti not take that is a mystery. Roma had several opportunities to score, eventually Roma grabbing one back with Schick’s first goal, but it was too late..The Torino sub-keeper was superb, the brother of Lazio’s midfielder Milinkovic-Savic, of course.

So, Roma are knocked out the Italian Cup, pity, a wasted opportunity to win a trophy missing now for 10 years. No time to get low, with the Juve clash only two days away. Head up, we must bounce back, we expect a great performance regardless, hoping for a great Christmas present.

Daje Roma! #DublinRomanista

0 Roma-Cagliari 1-0 “Cardio-Fazio”

17 dicembre 2017
Stefano Sale
· As Roma Corner

Six minutes of injury time and two more of the VAR. A heart-stopping ending, Roma could not unlock the Cagliari defense, a penalty badly wasted by Perotti after the VAR intervention. Then, so much effort but Roma could not create decent chances, a sterile maneuvering, so much confusion, a game plan that did not work.

When it seemed too late here it came, the last gasp of Commander Fazio in full injury time. So muhj joy that quickly disappeared with another VAR intervention. The referee stops the stadium’s enthusiasm. Suspense, like in a movie. “Now they will find a foul, a push, an arm ..” Then the confirmation: goal validated, the stadium jubilant again for the second time, a liberating scream, stuff not really suitable for the faint-hearted..

The danger of another draw dismissed. But Roma did not look good during construction phase, from midfield upwards. Instead, well the defense that does not concede goals, almost never in gtrouble, Cagliari has never even come close to our half. Midfield and attack, not a good display. The Dzeko-Schick pair did not work, Edin is not in shape, Patrik is not ready yet tactically. So much confusion between the twos.

If the three points had not arrived there would be an open trial and a lot of criticism for yet another draw and the team that does not perform as good as up until recently. But the three points have arrived, thank goodness, no controversy then, now we need to stay cool and be patient, continue to support this group that is doing very well. Now head to Torino in the Italian Cup. We must win to go though, winning the Italian Cup must be a real objective. Then we will think about Juventus..Daje and Forza Roma!

0 Roma-Chievo 0-0 “Saint Sorrentino”

10 dicembre 2017
Stefano Sale
· As Roma Corner

As against Genoa, we are angry for having lost two more points, so many unexploited opportunities and the miracles of “Saint Sorrentino” on goal, the Chievo keeper, superb today but conceded five against Inter last week.. Juventus and Inter, with Napoli drawing as well today, this it was a golden opportunity to get under it, to put pressure on the leading pack… at least everything remains unchanged, thank goodness, we have not lost ground.

Apart from the great vein of the goalkeeper of Chievo, we must also say that Roma has not capitalised the many opportunities, too many mistakes and also a lot of bad luck with Schick debuting from the start, then Gerson, El Sharaawy and Kolarov, with Cengiz, Perotti and Dzeko coming on in the second half. Edin has confirmed is not exactly in the best of the form, a couple of incredible opportunities he did not take. And anyway, luck has not smiled at Roma today, really unlucky for the many occasions created. Pity..

Tomorrow the Champions League draw, then Cagliari arrives at the Olimpico. We can not make mistakes anymore. Opportunity to pay homage to Lando Fiorini, a great Romanista singer. Today many chants for him from the Roman legion in the Bentegodi stadium in Verona. “We have a big heart, half yellow and half red”. Goodbye Lando, a true Roman but even more, a true romanista!

0 Roma-Qarabag 1-0 “Double winners”

6 dicembre 2017

· As Roma Corner

Miracle. Not only do we go to the knockout stages of the Champions League but we win the group surprisingly, at the expense of Chelsea and Atletico, the group of death, at the beginning prohibitive, we were all pessimistic and instead the strength of this group has made the difference, thanks to Eusebio Di Francesco who managed to get into the players’ heads and turn this team into a solid reality.

With the celebrations going into the next round here comes another news at the same time that changes the fate of AS Roma. The new stadium project has been approved and will be built in Tor di Valle racecourse area. In short, a historic double for all the Roma fans. There are all the conditions to grow as a club and finally become a big team in European football.

Last night Roma struggled a lot to beat Qarabag, the team seemed a bit tired, and lacked brilliance and Qarabag defended tighly, so we were all a bit apprehensive, especially after Atletico taking the lead in London against Chelsea, then Perotti eventually scoring the winner with Chelsea drawing consolidated Roma as group winner.

Eusebio Di Francesco deserves all the credit here, brushed away all the initial skepticism, the debates over Szcezsny-Allison, Kolarov, Perotti, El Sharaawy, Fazio, Gerson and so on. Now, head and mind on the league, all united, ready for the next adventure in the Champions League, and look forward to the new Stadio Della Roma! #DublinRomanista

0 Roma-Spal 3-1 “Brushed away”

2 dicembre 2017
Stefano Sale
· As Roma Corner

A victory that could not be otherwise. Spal were brushed away, a determined but modest team, with a Roma team that immediately seemed wantin g to go to to close the match quickly and start thinking about Qarabag.

In the field we saw Cengiz Under, then also the last 20 minutes for Schick, finally. And the return on the field after 6 months of Emerson Palmieri. The Roma finds again important players, even if not yet ready. Cengiz has given some good inputs, but we can see that he is still young with ample room for improvement. The highly anticipated Schick showed some play but is still in evident approximate condition, he also missed an easy goal too. We are convinced that this boy will be a good weapon in the second part of the championship. Emerson is back after the injury on the day of Totti farewell, will be very important change for Kolarov.

The referee and the VAR were under the spotlight, for the first time in favour of Roma at the Olimpico, last man foul Dzeko and red card for the Spal player after 10 minutes of play. Roma had the stage set, easy with goals of Dzeko, Strootman and Pellegrini, and it could have been more. Then Manolas intervention that gives the penalty to Spal, scored with the former Giallorosso Viviani in the second attempt. Repeated penalty, Alisson saves but then ball in the net on the ricochet. The same Alisson is the main man of a risky backheel in the penalty area, succeeded with class. Better still, a great Florenzi gets on many Spal players on the wing with backheels and various pirouettes, just applauses. Great match also Lorenzo Pellegrini who scores a very nice goal.

So, Roma returns to victory, Juventus shortens the standings winning the clash in Naples, waiting for the Inter result today. it is clear, there are 4 teams to challenge for the Scudetto, in the space of 4-5 points, with Roma with a match in hand. An open contest, in short. Too bad for the two points lost in Genoa … Soon the clash in Turin before Christmas. Meanwhile, there is a very important Champions League match on Tuesday, Qarabag arrives at the Stadio Olimpico, they have already taken two points away from Atletico, to the advantage of Roma. We do not underestimate them and we do not waste the opportunity to progress! Daje Roma!

0 Genoa-Roma 1-1 “Madness”

27 novembre 2017
Stefano Sale
· As Roma Corner

Two points wasted. Not a great match to watch especially in the first half, nevertheless Roma were in control, Genoa hardly able to stop the Giallorossi pushing forward, eventually with El Shaarawy opening the scoring. Thereafter not much trouble until madness happened.

Madness Daniele De Rossi. In the middle of Roma penalty area with nothing happening he decides to pull the shirt of Lapadula causing a silly penalty, then to make the matter worse he slaps him in the face, forgetting about the hundreds of CCTV cameras and the VAR system in place to detect anything these days.

Result: VAR showed it was a clear penalty and a red card for De Rossi, with Lapadula scoring the equaliser. Then, a ten-men Roma nearly won the game denied by another crossbar by Strootman at the end.. Shick found space with 5 mins to go and showed great skills. But in the end, 3 points thrown away.

We need a balanced assessment: while we agree that De Rossi silly move cost Roma 2 points, we also agree he’s had too many similar incidents in his career. So, no doubt he should be punished but cannot be classified as the evil figure of this football club. DDR remains DDR, with his pros and cons, nevrtheless a symbol of AS Roma.

Time to reflect but move on. We have SPAL on Friday and then Qarabag next week. Cannot afford any more distractions. Daje Roma!

0 Atletico-Roma 2-0 “Heroes of Silence”

24 novembre 2017
Stefano Sale
· As Roma Corner

Returning from Madrid we made some reflections on everything that happened and that we did not want to happen. Three thousand fans, a great enthusiasm in the city, the arrival at the Wanda Metropolitan Stadium in metro, the singing up to the away fans section 23.

After the anthem of the Champions League something happened but we did not understand well; suddenly comes the Spanish police in the midst of the hot fringe, seems to seduce some scuffles between Roma fans. Then, they begin to remove banners and everyone get seated. There is not even a chant. Let’s wait. Nothing. Only a few occasional screams of sorrow turn the North Stand warmly, but then nothing. A tomb silence accompanies Romeathroughout the game, while the “Colchoneros” fans are a passionate spectacle to watch.

Some applause will only come when the Spanish crowd starts chanting against Lazio. Sadly, Roma lose 2-0 and go back home with the feeling of who came here to support the team, and we ended up penalizing it. Roma and all his fans have lost out. Even though the police have exaggerated and remanded us, perhaps even unjustly, we do not like being hostage to anyone. Roma first of all, regardless.

In the field, the team in the first half played at par, indeed, has also had several opportunities and only missed the last pass, a winning finishing. Atletico seemed intimidated, but then, over time, he became more convincing. In the second half, however, Roma collapsed with two deadly shots.

The last game will decide on the turn of the round. Rome still has the situation in hand by beating Qarabag. Atletico must do the miracle in London to hope. But everything is still in the balance because the matches have to be won in the field. Daje and Forza Roma!

0 Fiorentina-Roma 2-4 “War Machine”

6 novembre 2017
Stefano Sale
· As Roma Corner

Power of heavy pressing, compact and crush. Roma is a war machine, all fighters at the service for one common goal. All equal. One worth one. The players might change but not the result: yesterday El Shaarawy, today Gerson. It is not so much about the the type of formation, but the work of EDF on the head of the players. All working for a common cause, ready to run, ready to sweat and get the results.

Contrary to his predecessor, Eusebio has brought these values into the team and made all the players feel equally important. El Sharaawy was not just thrown onto the pitch to save the shack when things did not work. Gerson this time has not been sent into an unknown ground, they believed and waited until he was ready phisically and mentally to deliver. But not just these two players. Let’s take Diego Perotti, another emblem of this cultural revolution labelled EDF. Sublime technique, one of the few to go past players like skittles, when he finds the goal he becomes a phenomenal player.

Roma beat Fiorentina because it has never give up, despite Fiorentina creating some problems in some stretches of the match, we have always felt that this team would bring the three points home in some ways. And so it was. After the home defeat agaist Napoli something happened. The team got up and started to believe again. This is another big maturity test. Meanwhile, we gnawed two points right at Napoli and Inter. The championship is long, and will see in January what’s on the table. The important thing is to stay right behind the train.

Now it’s International duties break, then we will re-start with fireworks: the Derby della Capitale. To crash Lazio we need this team, exactly as it is now. ALL UNITED TO REACH OUR GOAL. DAJE ROMA!

0 Roma-Chelsea 3-0 “Horror Show”

1 novembre 2017
Stefano Sale
· As Roma Corner

Trick or treat? Halloween becomes a Horror Show for Antonio Conte last night and becomes the sanctification of Eusebio Di Francesco today, on All Saints Day. Roma overpowered the Blues on a magical evening, where again the giallorossi overturned all odds and destroyed Conte’s team, now fighting to keep his job against Manchester United this coming weekend.

It was a wonderful Roma display in front of 55,000 spectators, these days like a sell-out; the team showed character with Stephan El Sharaawy hero of the night, in stunning shape, who marks two more fantastic goals after that against Bologna. It was a whole team showdown, with an immense Perotti on the left wing that ended the match with a powerful runner; a generous Dzeko fighting alone the Chelsea backend; the midfield led by Daniele De Rossi and a solid defense that does not give in anything in the hands of Commander Fazio.

The evening ends with the news of another unexpected draw by Atletico’s home game with Qarabag, which reinforces Roma win 1-2 in Baku, so much criticized. There are no more easy teams in the Champions League. Roma is incredibly ahead in the group, qualifying is now a step away when everyone, including us, has given little chances initially. A warning for us all.

On Sunday we go to Florence, no big heads please, the matches are all to be played and won in the field. Concentration, desire and determination, all united for one goal. Come on Roma!
