This Thursday evening, AS Rome welcomed Lille at Stadio Olimpico, on behalf of the second day of the Europa League. From the sixth minute of play, the DOGUES opened the scoring thanks to
Hákon Arnar Haraldsson.
The Icelandic international deceived the Belgian goalkeeper Mile Svilar, of a powerful shot of the right in the middle of the race, under the crossbar. Higher than their hosts in duels, Bruno Genesio's men returned to the Vestaires with an advance on the display board (0-1).
In the second half, LOSC was not far from breaking, but Olivier Giroud lacked some opportunities, including a Facde duel with the Roman porter (54th). The Louve club pushed by equalizing and obtained a penalty following a hand of Aïssa Mandi.
Özer, in the legend of LOSC
Berke Özer stopped Artem Dovbyk's attempt (82nd), but the referee asked to remove it. The Ukrainian international failed again against the last Turkish bulwark of the Dogues (84th). Never two without three, Erik Lambrechts gave the penalty to AS Roma. This time, it was the attempt at Matías Soulé that közer diverted (85th).
Nabil Bentaleb and his teammates held their lead to the end to seize second place in the ranking, only ahead of the goal difference by Braga. As a reminder, the first eight teams in the ranking validate their ticket for the round of 16. They also have the advantage of being standard, and therefore to avoid themselves during the next round.
