Roma collapses at Old Trafford, the dream fades and the table suffers

Under the lights of Old Trafford, Roma comes out with broken bones from the clash against Manchester United.

From dream to nightmare, from a first half as a top team to a second half to forget.

At halftime the yellow‑reds boasted a double lead thanks to the goals of Matias Soule and Donyell Malen.

The second‑half comeback

In the second half the spectacular comeback arrived, marked by Bruno Fernandes’ penalty and Cunha’s brace.

Gian Piero Gasperini commented: “They had nothing left to lose and pressed high, but it could have been… This prevented us from seeing the match out.”

The result adds to the draw against Fenerbahce, the loss against Real Madrid and the win against Slovan Bratislava, leaving Roma with four points from four games.

Now the team sits in nineteenth place, awaiting today’s fixtures, aiming to get back into the top twenty‑four while the next hurdle will be Paris Saint‑Germain in Paris.
