Fiorentina – Roma 1-2

Roma did not play very well, but they managed with cynicism to bring home the lampredotto. There were no great emotions in the first half and Fiorentina were more dangerous with Vlahovic. On that occasion he was good ...

Wednesday opponent: Fiorentina.

Prandelli fielded the 352 with little possession and very vertical. They also press and are very careful in the defensive phase. They have an excellent defensive phase (with the midfielders and in particular with the 3 central backs: Milenkovic, Pezzella and Martinez Quarta), but ...

Roma – Milan 1-2

The referee episodes strongly influenced the game. After the two goals canceled at Milan for 2 obvious offside, we had taken the lead with a goal from Mkhi, but it was canceled by the referee for a previous foul by Mancini. In…

The opponent of sunday: the AC Milan

Pioli deploys the 4231 which develops mainly centrally (mainly with the long throw for Ibra) or develops on the flanks (in particular their left, our right) to look for the cross for Ibra or Rebic. From behind they build with ...

Benevento – Roma 0-0

Juve – Roma 2-0

Roma did not play badly. He has had more possession, more territory and more shots, but football is often a cruel game, where the one who wins is not the one who plays better, but the one who scores. Juve made it ...

Saturday opponent: Juve.

In 1997-98, the CUCS showed up in Turin with a banner that read "Attack". We have always hated Juve since the 1980s and we had a terrible Juve accuser like Zeman on the bench (despite his uncle, Cestmir Vycpalek, he took him ...
