Roma was about to hit rock bottom in the Conference League and once again showed their dubious start to the season after drawing against Bodo / Glimt (2-2), who touched their second consecutive victory against the Italian team after the humiliating 6-1 that he got in the last day.
José Mourinho’s team did not learn the lesson of two weeks ago. The alarms went off in Norway with a historical set that brought out the colors of the Portuguese coach’s men. This Thursday he had the opportunity to redeem himself before his fans, but he did the opposite and lost points again against a lesser rival.
Roma is second
Despite their two consecutive poor results, with seven points in Group C, Roma remain second with two games remaining with 7 points, one less than Bodo / Glimt. Of course, with the Ukrainian Zorya, third, at a point and ready to fight with Roma to get a ticket to the sixteenth that Bodo / Glimt also dreams of.
The person in charge of turning on the red light for the first time in the Italian capital was Ola Solbakken, who scored the first goal of the match in added time of the first half. With a left-footed shot from outside the area that entered the squad of the goal defended by Rui Patrício, he opened the scoring for Mourinho’s despair.
The Bodo / Glimt comes forward again
Later, Stephan El Shaarawy leveled the counter with a good right hand from inside the area that momentarily alleviated the penalties of Roma, unable to stop their defensive bleeding with the second from Bodo / Glimt, the work of Erik Botheim after heading a ball against the passivity of the Roman rear.
And, when the tragedy was chewed, the Brazilian Roger Ibañez appeared to make up the result (84 ‘). On the verge of the end, the defender took advantage of an assist from Borja Mayoral to avoid a blushing defeat that could have called into question the work of José Mourinho.
