Roma lost 2-0 to Fiorentina in the 36th round of Serie A, and the Purple Lily scored a penalty in the 4th minute, setting the tone for the game.
At present, the two teams have the same points, and Roma are temporarily ranked 6th in Serie A.
Mourinho has led Roma to the final of the European Cup against Feyenoord. Roma fans are supporting Mourinho to lead the team to win the title and are deeply impressed.
The heat of the team is too high, which is not a good thing, and moderate cooling is necessary. The loss to Fiorentina objectively played this role.
Mourinho wants to lead Roma to qualify for next season's Europa League. At the current stage, Roma have two ways to reach this goal.
One way is to finish in the top six in Serie A; the other way is to win the European Cup.
So far, Roma have the hope of securing eligibility for the Europa League in a double-insured manner.
However, from the perspective of Serie A, the league side hopes that more teams can participate in European competitions next season.
Theoretically, Serie A could have 8 teams in European competitions next season, and in this case, it would be necessary to sacrifice Roma to make Roma 8th in the league. But Roma must win the inaugural European Cup.
In this extreme case, Serie A can achieve 8 teams in European competitions next season.
If this happens, it will be necessary to sacrifice the interests of Roma, Roma will bear great risks, and the worst result against the Red Wolves will be to end up in 8th place in the league and lose the European Cup.
Roma's next-round opponent is the penultimate Venetian team, and the Red Wolves are likely to make a large-scale rotation. Venice beat Bologna 4-3 in the just-concluded 36th round.
If Roma meets Venice on the bench, coupled with the refereeing factor, roma may not be able to defeat the opponent.
Before the Final of the European Cup, Roma fans need to be mentally prepared for Roma's poor performance in the league.
It wouldn't be a surprise if Roma were only eighth in Serie A this season.
Because this may be the most ideal outcome that the Serie A wants to see, and whether Roma can finally qualify for the Europa League will need to rely entirely on themselves to see if they can beat Feyenoord.
