Roma, the run-up starts again from Frosinone: 3-0 and Champions League at -4
A new victory to start again in the league with the goal of Europe.
Roma victorious again after the setback at the Stadio Olimpico against Inter. Daniele De Rossi’s Giallorossi came out on top in the regional derby against Frosinone on their way to victory on the ciociara soil. Huijsen scored in the first half for the lead, which was made wider by Azmoun’s double in the second half and Paredes’ penalty in the final. For the new Capitoline coach è the fourth win out of five in Serie A, but above all a success that allows him to keep the distance from Atalanta and Bologna (and therefore the ambitions of qualifying for the Champions League) at only 4 points.
The start of the match, in fact, è was favorable to Frosinone: on the developments of a corner è Huijsen to save everything on Kaio Jorge, then Brescianini also tried but his aim è wrong. Roma shakes off starting on the quarter d'hour: Lukaku engages Turati, then is closed down on Azmoun's initiative. Soulé twice scares the Giallorossi, who also tremble on the initiatives of Brescianini (saves Mancini) and Kaio Jorge (decisive Svilar and the same Mancini). Then, suddenly, at 38' Huijsen put the guests ahead after a sensational scramble from the defense to the Frusinate goal.
Roma’s lead did not turn off Frosinone, which again came close to scoring in the opening half with Mazzitelli. Around the hour mark the last gasp with Lirola, then at 71'the Giallorossi effectively closed out the game when Cristante engaged Turati but could do nothing on Azmoun’s tap-in that doubled it. There'è still time for a hand intervention by Okoli in the box: Giua was called back to Var and ordered the penalty, which Paredes converted at 81'81;. And Daniele De Rossi’s team goes back to dreaming of Europe.
