Football tips Roma stepped sideways against ten from Benevento

Roma failed to beat Benevento, although they had a numerical advantage for almost the entire second half. The match of `Ciro Vigorito` ended 0:0, which is certainly a disappointment for the `wolves`. Paulo Fonseca`s team felt tired from the match via football livescores with Braga in the Europa League, and the hosts defended very organized and deserved the point. Roma`s defense was changed, with Leonardo Spinazola standing next to Federico Fascio and Canluca Mancini, and Rick Karsdorp and Bruno Perez on both sides. One Jacko remained on the bench at the expense of Borja Mayoral. Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Lorenzo Pellegrini helped the Spaniard, and in the middle of the field their partners were Jordan Veretu and Gonzalo Viyar.

The new addition Brian Reynolds is still in the USA, and due to injuries Chris Smalling, Marash Kumbula, Roger Ibanes, Brian Cristante, Davide Santon and Ricardo Calafiori missed the match. Benevento coach Filippo Inzaghi could count on an optimal squad, with the exception of defender Gaetano Letizia. The attack was led by Canluca Lapadula, supported by Arthur Ionica and Canluca Caprari. In the first minutes, Roma`s defense was quite uncertain and Fascio made a mistake that Caprari did not take advantage of. The Wolves dominated ball possession, but they lacked creativity. In the middle of the half Lapadula sent the ball into the door of Pau Lopez, but his goal was canceled due to an ambush. In the 38th minute Pellegrini struck hard, but Lorenzo Montipo was careful and killed with one hand. Shortly before the break, a chance opened up for Federico Barba, but he shot weakly and did not hinder Lopez. The boring first half was followed by a second, in which the teams continued to be quite idealess. This is especially true for guests. From the 57th minute, they played with one more man because Camille Glick received a red card. The Pole already had an official warning when he was late entering Mkhitaryan`s feet and was kicked out by Judge Luca Payreto. Paulo Fonseca immediately replaced Veretu with Edin Dzeko. Roma`s players besieged the penalty area of Benevento, but never reached clear positions. The appearance of Stefan El Shaarawy in the game didn`t help either. In the 94th minute, the `Jaoros` could still get the victory, but Luca Caldirola cleared from the goal.

That was not all, because literally in the last seconds El Shaarawi was knocked down in the penalty area and Payreto gave a penalty for Roma, but after reviewing the situation with VAR, it turned out that the Little Pharaoh was in ambush. So the `wolves` missed valuable points and forgot to get close to Milan. Benevento equalized with Bologna, Udinese and Fiorentina, but lost to them by a goal difference.
