AC MILAN-ROME, TABLE AND STATISTICS
Milan-Rome, the news
In Milan there is Tatarusanu in goal instead of Gigio Donnarumma and Calhanoglu returns to the trio behind Ibrahimovic; Tonali is on the bench. Roma, still without Smalling, recovers Mancini in defense, lines up Karsdorp wide on the right in place of Santon and Pellegrini in the median with Veretout. The most awaited man, Ibrahimovic, puts the stamp on the game already at 2 ‘on a delightful assist from Leao: the 39-year-old Swede touches right, anticipating the Giallorossi goalkeeper Mirante. Roma tries to react in the 9th minute with Dzeko, who wedges himself up to the small Rossoneri area: the Bosnian is walled up at the last moment by the former Roma player Kjaer, one step away from Tatarusanu. Just Dzeko signed the Giallorossi equalizer in the 14th minute, with a header from Pellegrini’s corner, taking advantage of an empty exit from Donnarumma’s deputy. At the half hour, Roma trembles three times in the space of a few moments: Theo Hernandez touches the net with a left low shot, then Romagnoli with his head forces Mirante to the plastic parade and finally Kjaer hits the header post.
