One day, Messi and his teammates played like sleeping, they had to thank God for conceding only 1 goal in the first half. Roma understand that their only way to win is to score, even many goals. Therefore, the Italian representative was eager from the first minutes and got the result in the 6th minute. The striker was Dzeko after an escape and shot close to the goal.
Despite pressuring the opponent, the remaining 39 minutes of the first half could not score more goals, Roma was forced to do double that in the second half. And indeed, they did.
It was the confusion in the first half that greatly affected Barca's mentality. As a result, Pique pulled De Rossi down in the penalty area. On the penalty spot in the 58th minute, the veteran Roma midfielder made no mistake. The home team had about 32 minutes left to score another goal.
Without having to wait until the extra minutes, Dzeko and his teammates caused an earthquake in the 82nd minute. Manolas seemed to come up from the ground, the ribbon cutting and headed Ter Stegen down. 3-0 for Roma, Barca in a weak day could only counterattack in weakness.
This defeat made it bitter for those who love the Catalynua team. Although they lost their first match of the season, this was certainly the most painful loss for Valverde and his team. After the final whistle, this strategist is facing a wave of fans demanding to fire him.
As for De Rossi and his teammates. I can only give the most admiration to their fighting spirit and enthusiasm. This result is a testament to what the Rome defenders have shown on the pitch.
