Roma almost made a superb comeback yesterday in the round of 16 second leg of the Europa League. After the 1-1 in the first leg against Bologna, La Louve was trailing 1-3 on home soil until the 69th minute. A penalty caused by Robinio Vbaz and converted by Malen, and a goal signed Pellegrini on a pass from the former Marseillais sent everyone into overtime. But fatigue ended up taking over, and Cambiaghi gave the Rossoblù victory and qualification.

After the match, disappointment dominated Gian Piero Gasperini, who was nonetheless happy with Vaz’s entry. “He’s a very young player. The fact that he represented a significant investment weighs on him, but he must improve, and playing at this level is not easy. With his liveliness, he can bring something during a match. In addition, to aim for higher objectives, we were missing several quality players», Reacted the Italian technician.
