Guivert, deputy Roma, against SPAL | Football

The team of coach Eusebio Di Francesco has already suffered the third defeat of the season in the ninth round. SPAL was surprisingly 0-2 too strong. It is only for the club of the city of Ferrara that AS Roma played the second match in seventeen matches.

Striker Andrea Petagna used a penalty in the 38th minute that was given after a slight offense. The second goal came from a corner after a break. Defender Kevin Bonifazi led the ball in the 56th minute. Shortly after, Justin Kluivert entered the field, but the Dutchman could not change anything

The referee had played a decisive role in the finals. Goaltender Vanja Milinkovic-Savic had a ball in her hands in the 76th minute but threw it over the back line while another ball was ready to resume the game on the pitch. The manager felt that time was passing or that the game was deteriorating. Milinkovic-Savic then received his second yellow card because of his protest. Even with a new goalkeeper in the lines and one less player on the field, SPAL held up.
