A very important day for the rest of the season of AS Roma. The victory over Napoli sends a clear message to the rest of the pack; the knowledge that on paper only Juve are stronger.
At the San Paolo stadium today Roma showed again superiority after doing the same by beating Inter Milan. Another victory of strength, Roma deserved the three points, that propel us up there behind the Juventus bypassing the Neapolitans.
The game: roaring start and opportunities on both sides. Then comes Edin Dzeko with a great goal from outside the penalty area, although before he had had a couple of missed opportunities. Then Roma went to double the result with a precise counter-attack move; Mo Salah did the Fierce Saladin on the wing, always a thorn in the side but this time also guessed the right corner with the goal that closed the match; That came after the momentary goal of Napoli that reopened the game.

Here, only for about 10 minutes Napoli were pushing hard and we all feared for another to put the game back to even score with still half an hour to go. However, this time Roma held and managed well without any major worries apart from a couple of attempts by Mertens.
Now, let’s move on with confidence. The Europa League on Thursday and then back home against Palermo. We must take advantage and keep the momentum, with this Dzeko who now begins to put it in the back of the net. We have reason to believe again.
Now let’s enjoy this great win. Let’s dream again. Forza Roma!
