If there is anything to see in the Serie A at present, then in addition to the title battle and relegation battle at the end of the two ends, the competition for Europa League qualification is also quite eye-catching! Roma, Fiorentina and Atalanta are all competing for 1 Europa League qualification, and this round Roma will have to face the challenge of Fiorentina directly, roma have an unbeaten record of 8 rounds, and they have maintained a 5 consecutive unbeaten record against Fiorentina, whether psychologically or paper they are the dominant side.
Fiorentina's re-emergence this season is not unexpected, after 5 years of turmoil the team is finally back in the ranks of the Champions League qualification, with the summer window to buy striker Nicolas Gonzalez and the previous outbreak of Vlahović's golden double gun performance they can once achieve the goal of returning to the Champions League, but the winter window Vlahović's departure has greatly reduced the quality of the team's attack, and now returning to European competition is their real goal. In a battle against Rome they must take down their opponents to take the lead.
Race conditions
Just five minutes into the opening, Mourinho's side was hit, Fiorentina hit the box directly in attack, then Nicolas Gonzalez broke through the penalty area under the defense of Roma player Karlsdorp, and after VAR replay, the referee awarded a penalty! Gonzalez then hit the ball himself and the score came to 1-0. Slow motion from the game showed the goal controversially, first gonzalez was outside the penalty area before he fell to the ground, and then Karlsdorp seemed to have not touched the opponent at all! The opening blow was hit, and Mourinho on the sidelines showed a bitter smile, before they had been accusing the referee of Serie A of unfair judgment against Roma, and as a result, this scene appeared again in this game, and it is estimated that Mourinho will speak surprisingly after the game.
The game still continued, Roma seemed to have lost all mood after conceding the goal at the beginning, in the 10th minute, Fiorentina's long drive into the top of the penalty area, Roma players were an undefended look, and then his low shot directly pierced roma goalkeeper Patricio's ten fingers, the score came to 2-0. Bonaventura even scored another goal in the 25th minute, but this time it was cancelled out of the way due to offside, and then the two sides did not achieve anything at half-time.
After the start of the second half, Roma was still suppressed by the whole field, the team's double striker Abraham and Pellegrini even only had 1 or 2 shots on goal, forced to cross has become The rhythm of Rome's game, but in the final moments of the game, the appearance of "great Italian left-back" Spinazzolla became a highlight of the game, you know this is his second appearance after 311 days! However, in the end, the match ended with Roma losing 2-0.
After the game
After losing this match, Roma have gone from an unbeaten record of 8 rounds to a 4-round unbeaten record, and in the confrontation with their direct competitors they lost a clean and clean way is really difficult for fans to satisfy. Sure enough, after the game Mourinho did not shy away from bluntly saying: the VAR referee sat comfortably in his chair and took a lot of points from us! A big mouth Mourinho in the previous coaching of Inter Milan has been attacking the Italian Football Association, and then to Spain, England he is to retain this "feature", we do not know the truth of the matter naturally can not comment on this matter, but the disaster from the mouth seems not unreasonable.
