Il Messaggero (S. Carina) – To re-read it at the final whistle, the unreleased preview and posthumous of Pino Daniele, Again (again), which had thrilled the Maradona before kick-off it had been a warning. Again, Roma were defeated in Naples (where he hasn’t won since 2018) and away (last success dated 25 April); again or if you still prefer the goal that decides the match comes from a Angeliño’s mistakeyet another of a season so far to be forgotten, and from an indecision of Hummels, surprisingly deployed in the second halfwho, in order not to replicate Florence’s own goal, was preceded byfrom Lukaku; once again the team appears fragile up front (a cross from Dovbyk, an error from Baldanzi and little else).
The usual Roma, then, also in the new Ranieri format? NoWhy something different was seen and it wouldn’t be right to lay other people’s blame on the San Saba coach after having had the group available for just three days. But those who thought it was enough to normalize Roma with words, after last night, understood that the situation is more serious than one could have imagined. Because if it is true that Roma are playing their honest game, they appear more balanced than usual and hold their own against Napoli, who are back first in the standings, until the 90th minute, the ranking says 13 points after 13 racese.
And after Tottenham this week, which already looks like a crossroads to snatch at least a place in the playoffs in the Europa League, Atalanta will arrive at the Olimpico on Monday. In short, the emergency response Claudio will have to invent something. Which cannot be the two minutes granted to Dybala at the end, Soulé’s benching or the surprising decision to close the match by lining up Dahl, Abdulhamid and Hummels together, who up until now were mere extras.
