Roma just needs Bryan Cristante

Roma’s season starts on the right foot: the Giallorossi return from Salerno with three points in their pocket, obtained thanks to Bryan Cristante’s goal. Jose Mourinho can smile about Paulo Dybala’s performance: the Argentine showed very interesting things and also hit a post. Not so good Zaniolo.

The first half was Giallorossi-tinged: the Capitolini dominated but were inaccurate in the last meters. In the 33rd minute Cristante is good (and lucky) in unraveling a confused situation in the area: his touch is deflected by Coulibaly and ends up in the net. There is also room for Dybala’s attempt, which hits the post. In the second half, the Argentine is still the protagonist on a couple of occasions, then with five minutes to go a goal is disallowed to Wijnaldum for offside.
