Jose Mourinho continues the clean record in Rome, while Giallossi advances to the Conference League group stage with a clear 3-0 win over Trabzonspor. At goal, Rui Patricio dodged a setback with two excellent saves early in the second half, preventing a draw with Turkey and leaving fans stricken by his reflexes when heading into the center of Victor Hugo.
The Portuguese national team player was noted as a figure of the meeting, and it was no coincidence that Mourinho decided to cross the field to congratulate one of the main reinforcements of the Roma who came from Wolverhampton. In addition to the decisive role of Rui Patricio, Ibanez, Lorenzo Pellegrini and Zaniolo, who scored a goal after 400 days, were the focus of the Roman team. Former Benfica player Cristante beat Roma to comfortably with an outside kick, while El Shaarawy narrowed the gap.
“We have to show humility to understand that the result is the result of the last 15 minutes and ended up being too difficult for Trabzonspor, a team that deserved to be in the Europa League. I emphasize the way of thinking, spirit and way of thinking about the game. But if Rui did not defend early in the second half, the game could have turned out differently, ”admitted the Portuguese coach, who took responsibility for resuming Roma’s play in a big debate. Mourinho is tidying up the house and immediately asks Pellegrini, the team’s boss, to be repaired.
“You must sign tomorrow [sexta-feira] or the day after tomorrow [sábado]… The club is fantastic for him and fantastic for the club. This will certainly be done very soon. If he goes to the national team, it will be when he returns, ”summed up Mourinho, who will save Zaniolo, who was stopped all last season, in the next round of Serie A.“ I wanted to give him two days. vacation, but he refused, that says something. “
