Roma loses five to one against Fiorentina. A total disaster for the Giallorossi who were in tactical difficulty right from the start, at the mercy of the Viola counterattack and sank under the blows of Bove, a former player with a bad tooth, and the Viola. Juric, in disarray, is unable to keep the reins of the team, which was then left with 10 men due to the expulsion of Hermoso, who did not react to his instructions and his changes, already arriving in the 32nd minute, led to nothing. In fact, the senators, Mancini and Cristanti, who were replaced, don’t even follow the match from the bench. Hummels makes his debut and scores an own goal to complete an inauspicious evening. Clouds over the future of Roma and that of Juric.

Here are the RomaToday report cards
Svilar 6.5: Not guilty of the goals conceded. Great save on Sottil.
Mancini 5.5: The best of the Roma defense. With a nice intervention he denies Kean the goal. Substituted at half-time because he was booked. (from the 46th minute Baldanzi 4.5: It’s not clear he came in from fifth across the board).
N’Dicka 3: Never, ever takes Kean. Juric’s injection of confidence on the eve caused only trouble.
Hermoso 3: Always late in the Viola dribble. He also earns a red card (for a double yellow).
Celik 3: Total confusion for the Turk. From the dubious penalty foul it is a total disaster.
Pisilli 4.5: He sinks into the abyss together with all his teammates. He loses, euphemistically, the long-distance duel with Bove.
Cristante 4.5: Totally late, Fiorentina’s midfielders are performing twice as fast as him. Replaced shortly after the half hour mark. (from 32′ Kone 6: The goal saves him from failure).
Angelino 4.5: The Colpani-Dodò pair is uncatchable for the Spaniard, who also changed in the 32nd. (from 32′ Zalewski 4.5: His entrance doesn’t change the music).
Dybala 6: The only one with quality who tries to change the fate of the match already scored at the start. De Gea and the post deny Joya the goal. (from 67′ Hummels 4: Debut with own goal on Roma’s black evening. Unlucky).
Pellegrini 4.5: He has a good opportunity to reopen the match but he wastes it and shortly afterwards the 4th Viola goal arrives.
Dovbyk 3: Canceled from the match by Fiorentina’s centre-backs.
Coach Juric 2: In disarray, he and the team that doesn’t assimilate his ideas, he insists and they end up shipwrecked. In addition to the technical reaction, the absence of the mental one is worrying. The changes in the 30th minute were of little help to the formation put on the field in disarray and at the mercy of Fiorentina.
