07 February 2020Two defeats in a row after the draw in the derby for Roma who surrendered 3-2 at the Olimpico to an excellent Bologna. Mihajlovic's team thus obtains the third victory in a row and proposes itself authoritatively in the Europa League area. For the Giallorossi a bad signal after the knockout in Reggio Emilia, Atalanta can complete the overtaking in the Champions key.Again Kolarov owner, right back is Santon in the eleventh of Fonseca. The midfielders behind Dzeko, with Pellegrini's suspension, are Under, Mkhitaryan and Perotti. Mihajlovic, not at all intimidated, fielded the 4-3-3 with Orsolini, Palacio and Barrow in the trident and Soriano in midfield. The Felsinei impose rhythm and pressing and find the advantage after the initial skirmishes. At 16 'cross by Barrow, Smalling closes on Palacio but lets the ball go to Orsolini for a comfortable touch of the plate. Rome dazed, Svanberg mulls the double hit. To bring back the Giallorossi in the match, a clumsy detour by Denswil thinks that intervenes badly on the cross by Kolarov and beats his goalkeeper (22 '). The unexpected draw gives energy to Roma, who tries to break through on the left with the Kolarov-Perotti axis. But the left wing of Bologna also works well. At 26 'Barrow points Santon and hits round, the deflection of the defender mockery Pau Lopez, felsinei again ahead. And always masters of the game. Orsolini offers Svanberg an inviting ball, the Swede is still inaccurate. Palacio moves to the right on a break that cuts the defense, his shot facilitates the intervention of Pau Lopez.
Rome is not part of the more reactive changing rooms, guests are always charged and concentrated. At 51 'Barrow (who gives a lot of support to the defense) leaves to the left from his half of the field, arrives unchallenged at the edge of the area, misses Mancini and stabs Pau Lopez: personal brace and 1-3. Fonseca quickly changes the right chain: Carles Perez for Under and Bruno Peres for Santon. The Giallorossi now bring the grit. Just Perez manages to make room on the top of the area, Skorupski blocks in two stages. Bologna struggles to get out on the pressure. So (72 ') on yet another ball recovered in the Felsine trocar, Dzeko stretches for Bruno Peres who crosses from the bottom line, Mkhitaryan in advance of the head reduces the distances. Rome drumming, Dzeko and Smalling try. Fonseca unbalances the team in search of equals: Kalinic for Veretout. The time to see a nice turn of Dzeko that Skorupski somehow contains, then Cristante leaves his team in ten (80 ') for the direct red due to a bad intervention on Orsolini. Rome tries despite the inferiority. Risks on a counterattack 4 against 2 wasted by the Felsinei, in recovery Skorupski saves twice on Dzeko.
