Posted
AS Roma was muzzled at home by the penultimate (0-0). Nicolo Zaniolo scored a superb but in added time, but it was ultimately disallowed.
Nicolo Zaniolo canceled having freed Roma in added time against Silvan Hefti’s Genoa (0-0), but the goal was canceled by the VAR and the striker sent off a few moments later in protest, Saturday during the 24th day of Series A.
Francesco Totti, present in the stands of the Olimpico, and all the tifosi of Roma went through all the states in the last seconds: Zaniolo first unleashed a magnificent shot as added time began and went went to brag under the turn of the ultras this but synonymous with liberation after a crisp encounter against the relegated Genoese (19th). But the referee, after awarding the goal, was sent to the control screen by the video assistance and showered the joy of José Mourinho and his men, by sanctioning a slight prior fault by Tammy Abraham. And a few moments later, when the game had resumed, Zaniolo could not suppress his frustration and attacked the referee who then released the red card (90 + 5th).
Strange end to the match for the Italian international, that part of the press announces in discussions with Juventus for a possible transfer next summer, but that Mourinho intends to keep on the banks of the Tiber.
Roma (6th), who played in numerical superiority the last 20 minutes after the exclusion of Genoa defender Leo Ostigard (69th), let slip two important points in the European race.
Genoa, with this second consecutive 0-0 for the new coach Alexander Blessin, who arrived on January 19 in succession to Andriy Shevchenko, grabs a crucial point, returning to four points from the first non-relegation (Venice, 17th) .
