At 1:00 a.m. Beijing time on February 14, the 25th round of Serie A ushered in a match, and Roma challenged Sassuolo away. Although Roma invited Mourinho, the team's record has not improved. Prior to that, Roma had won just 12 of their 24 league games and lost nine. And in the Coppa Italia, Roma are also out. Mourinho's coaching style has been questioned, his words of reprimanding players in the locker room have been exposed, and many people believe that a crack has been created between him and the players. Mourinho's coaching prospects are hard to be optimistic about. This time Roma played against Sassuolo, who met in the 3rd round, when Roma narrowly won. In this away game, Roma played quite hard, and finally only won a draw, and it was only in stoppage time that they equalized.
Mourinho lined up in a 3412 formation for this game. Patricio served as the starting goalkeeper. Kumubra, Smalling and Gianluca Mancini are paired at 3 backs. Binia, Oliveira, Mkhitaryan and Karstop form a four-midfielder. The combined attacking trident of Lorenzo Pellegrini, Abraham and Gian joined forces. Shomurodov, Christant, Carlos Perez and Villertow sit on the bench.
Shortly after the start, Terraore broke through Roma's door, only because the handball was judged invalid. From this moment on, Terraore became Sassuolo's most active player and will play a very important role in the next game. Sassuolo, who played at home, played aggressively, and Roma was a bit of a mess at one point. After playing for 15 minutes, Roma gradually got into shape, regained the initiative on the pitch and created opportunities in succession. Tammy Abraham scored 1 goal but was ruled offside. Both sides had 1 goal blown out. Kirikesh made a big mistake by handballing the ball to give Abraham the lead for Roma on penalties. Roma led by one goal at the end of the half.
In the second half, the situation suddenly changed, Traoré's cross was blocked by a refraction drill into the goal, patricio received the ball wrong to miss the ball into the goal. This ball can't be completely blamed on Patricio, after all, there is refraction. Traorre then scored a powerful shot to help Roma rally the score. Traoré scored two goals alone, and one person upset the Roman backline, and Roma was too embarrassed. Ferrari was sent off for a foul and Roma, who played one more man, fought hard, and finally Christant scored a goal in stoppage time to help Roma grab a point. The final score was set at 2-2, and Roma only got one draw. Roma have drawn twice in a row in the league, and teams that have twice suffered 10 places have not won.
In a post-match whoscored rating, Berardi scored a game-high 7.7 points, delivering 1 assist and 3 key passes. Traoré scored 7.6 points and he scored 2 goals, including 1 of his own, 1 key pass and 3 successful passes. The highest scorer on the Roma side was Tammy Abraham, who scored 7.5 points on three shots and scored 1 penalty. Substitute Villertul played a key role, assisting Christant in the final moments and he scored 6.9 points. Mourinho's decision to replace Villerotu was all too correct, and it changed the tide of the game and scored 1 point. For Rome, however, failing to win against such an opponent was a matter of failure. Roma, who have only scored 1 point, will have a hard time qualifying for the Champions League.
