Rome in free fall, in Verona it ends 3-2

L’Hellas Verona conquers an important success at Bentegodi beating Roma 3-2in the match valid for the eleventh day of the Serie A championship. Tengstedt, Magnani and Harroui scored for the Venetians; the Capitoline goals scored by Soulè and Dovbyk were in vain. The Giallorossi team has a good approach to the match and immediately tries to see phases in the opponent’s half of the pitch, scoring with Zalewski, but the goal is disallowed due to an initial offside.

In the 13th minute the Polish winger made a sensational mistake by giving the ball to Tengstedt, who flew towards the goal and beat Svilar for 1-0. In the 25th minute Soulè devours the equalizer by shooting over from a few goals, but three minutes later he redeems himself: the former Juventus striker receives the ball from Zalewski and deposits it with his heel at the bottom of the bag. The pace of the match remains very high and in the 34th minute Hellas takes the lead again thanks to a winning header following Magnani’s corner. The goal was validated after a check for two alleged fouls by the Veronese team, which were not detected first by the match director and then by the VAR.

In the second half, Roma managed to immediately grab the equalizer in the 53rd minute with Dovbyk who, after starting the action, capitalized on Soulè’s assist to the maximum, creating the decisive tap-in; also in this case a check is necessary to validate the marking. Both coaches make substitutions to try to change the game and Juric, increasingly in the balance, sends Dybala onto the pitch (initially on the bench) among others.

The fresh forces seem to be doing well for the Capitoline team, who in the 83rd minute came close to taking the lead with a free kick from the number 21, which grazed the top corner. A few moments later a melee occurs in the Scaligeri penalty area, which is resolved by the referee who stops everything for offside. Two minutes from the 90th minute, the newly introduced Harroui freezes the Giallorossi fans, realizing Livramento’s counterattack and scoring the 3-2 goal. In full injury time Montipò makes a decisive intervention on Dybala, while Livramento is sent off for a bad foul on El Shaarawy. Fourth championship success for Hellas; Rome’s crisis continues.
