On this day in 2003, Amantino Mancini’s amazing heel flick goal for Roma vs Lazio in the derby, subsequently named by Romanisti “Er tacco de dio” (the heel of God)
I find that there’s something to be said for patience and careful planning. I think something great can be done, but it’s going to take some time. Let the defense build solidarity and offense develop chemistry, and a few extra players along the way.
Give it up for these exceptional fans who probably spent a half-week’s salary and boarded a train - and boat - supporting ASR through the entire match.
Sad for the result, disappointed with a few different entities. Worried? Not really.
Frattesi scores another (important) goal for Sassuolo. Another product from Roma’s primavera, has all the qualities in the making of an awesome center-mid. #UdineseSassuolo
There’s a gulf in talent between Roma and Venezia’s players, but Paolo Zanetti has his Venetians organized and playing a smart counter. Lots of credit to the 38-year-old manager. #VeneziaRoma
