Roma wins four to one against Sampdoria and reaches the quarter-finals of the Italian Cup. There is no story at the Olimpico, with the Giallorossi putting the difference in category on the pitch. Ranieri’s team makes the most of the errors of the Sampdoria defense and find the double advantage from Dovbyk and the goal from Baldanzi in less than thirty minutes. In the second half the guests came forward with Yepes taking advantage of an error by Hermoso, but Shomurodov re-established the distance. Roma takes home the match and qualifies for the next round of the national cup in which they will face former coach Fonseca’s Milan.

Here are the RomaToday report cards
Ryan 6: Debuts in the Giallorossi without ever getting his gloves dirty. At three-nil he makes a mess to avoid a corner kick but the Roma defense unravels the danger. He can do nothing about the goal.
Celik 6: Never suffers.
N’Dicka 6: Careful and polished.
Hermoso 5.5: Holes the intervention on the cross that leads Samp to the goal.
Saelemaekers 7: Determinant. Dovbyk’s first two goals were born from the former Milan’s crosses. (from 62′ Soule 6.5: Enters with desire and hits the crossbar with a great shot from outside the area. Unlucky).
Paredes 6: Manages every ball with quality and clarity. Not perfect on the occasion of the Ligurian goal. (from 71′ Pellegrini 6: Enters to bring order to the middle of the pitch).
Pisilli 6.5: Aggressive, even too much, dominates the midfield. (from 62′ Le Fee 5.5: Shy, misses many simple passes).
Angelino 6.5: From his left foot the perfect assist for Shomurodov’s head.
Zalewski 5.5: The least involved, he could have done more. He misses the tackle that leads to the visitors’ goal. (from 71′ Dahl 6: He follows Ranieri’s orders without overdoing it)
Baldanzi 7: Inspired from the first minutes, he scores a nice goal with his left foot.
Dovbyk 7.5: Two balls touched, two goals. Find the network that has been missing for too long. Face to face with Vismara the hat-trick fails. (from 78′ Shomurodov 7: Enters and scores the goal on the first play of his match).
Coach Ranieri 7: The difference between the two teams is clear, he easily takes home the victory while also implementing the turnover.
