Thursday's opponent: FC Torino.

Filadelfia and its magic. An article about Torino cannot be made, without mentioning the great Torino of the 1940s, capable of winning 5 league titles in a row and remaining unbeaten for 6 years in a row at Filadelfia. ...

Bologna – Roma 1-5

Roma heavily punishes a Bologna that is too unscrupulous, which has deployed the 4231, instead of the 343 expected by me. Everyone played well (including Cristante, who scored an unfortunate own goal).

Sunday opponent: the Bologna FC.

The Sanctuary of San Luca is a historic monument, artistically appreciable, of great religious value (and the Bolognese also believe miraculous). From the beautiful 17th century portico you can easily reach the guest sector. Now I think that Our Lady too ...

Roma – Sassuolo 0-0

The referee Maresca strongly directed the game with one-way decisions. The yellow seems too severe to Pedro because the Spaniard does not touch Berardi (as Bergomi also says to Sky Calcio Club). Red is right because Pedro ...

Roma – Parma 3-0

Roma wins, commanding the game, having patience, managing possession, hitting first with cunning and then taking advantage of the counterattack. Spina is very good at fishing on the defense line Borja who places the ball in the corner. Previously, Borja is ...

Sunday opponent: the Parma.

When I went away to Parma (a good 3-0 for us), I was especially struck by the yellow color of the buildings. It is a vivid and vital yellow. A unique shade of yellow that is called Giallo Parma. Daverio and Parmigianino. ...

Genoa – Roma 1-3

Roma dominated and won thanks also to an opponent who was very concentrated in the defensive phase, but who then left too much space for the attackers. The match was decided by the splendid hat-trick of Mkhi, defined as “baroque” by some newspapers. Bruno too
