Playing at the Olimpico stadium, the maroon team entered the game proactively, controlled the game and soon created great pressure on the opponent's half. After many attacks, AS Roma concretized their advantage in the 25th minute. From Gianluca Mancini's assist, Donyell Malen finished neatly, opening the score for the home team.
The goal helped Roma play even more excitedly. They continued to put pressure on Cagliari with a high-pressing style and diverse attacks on both wings. However, the first half closed with a minimal advantage for the home team at the Olimpico stadium.
Stepping into the second half, Roma was still the team controlling the game. In the 65th minute, Zeki Celik had a favorable cross for Gianluca Mancini to rush in and finish accurately, doubling the gap and sealing a 2-0 victory for the home team.
Statistics show Roma's superiority when they launched up to 15 shots, of which 5 were on target. In the opposite direction, Cagliari only had a meager 3 shots in 90 minutes of play.
With this victory, AS Roma has 46 points after 24 rounds, equal points with Juventus but ranked behind due to inferior goal difference. The Italian capital team continues to closely follow the Champions League group and maintain significant pressure on direct competitors in the decisive stage of the season.
Meanwhile, Cagliari is still stuck in the middle of the rankings and needs to improve their form if they want to soon ensure their relegation goal.
