The clash between Union Saint-Gilloise and Roma, played at 18:45, proved to be a decisive moment for both teams, with the aim of improving their position in the standings in the European tournament. The tension is palpable and the fans are anxiously awaiting the result that could turn the season around.
The first half ended 0-0, with no significant chances. The hosts tried to assert themselves with attempts from Khalaili, Sykes and Niang, but Serbian goalkeeper Svilar kept a clean sheet. Roma struggled to find rhythm and calm, surprising their fans with a performance below expectations.
During the break, coach Ivan Juric expressed his determination: “We have to win for morale and the standings. We need a positive result after the defeat in Verona.” The coach’s words highlight the urgency of a change in the team’s dynamic.
In the second half, the match took an unexpected turn. In the 62nd minute, Mancini scored the first goal of the match for Roma, putting the Giallorossi ahead thanks to a precise header from Pellegrini’s assist. However, in the 77th minute, Mac Allister equalised for Union Saint-Gilloise, taking advantage of an error by the opposing goalkeeper. With the score set at 1-1, both teams stepped up their efforts to find the decisive goal. Roma, while showing signs of recovery, must deal with the absence of some key players such as N’Dicka.
The season is still in its early stages and Roma must face the challenges with determination and concentration. Victory has become an imperative not only for the standings, but also to rebuild confidence in an environment that has suffered since the beginning of the season. The ultimate goal remains clear: avoid further disappointment and keep alive their hopes of qualifying for the Europa League round of 16. With the right commitment and a bit of luck, the Giallorossi can still climb back up and prove their worth on the European stage.
