En la búsqueda de un boleto a las semifinales de la Europa League, AS Roma y Feyenoord protagonizaron una áspera batalla, en la cual el mexicano Santi Giménez recibió uno que otro cariñito, entre ellos una curiosa mezcla de manotazo y arañazo que terminó con un asistente de Jose Mourinho expulsado.
Barcelona vs. Roma was the biggest mismatch of the Women's Champions League quarterfinals on paper, and so it proved over two legs as Barça stormed to a 6-1 aggregate victory over the Italian side.
After winning 1-0 in Rome last week, Barcelona scored five at the Camp Nou on Wednesday night through Fridolina Rolfö's brace and further goals from Mapi León, Asisat Oshoala and Patri Guijarro.
Italy international Annamaria Serturini was able to score one for La Lupa in Catalonia.
The UEFA Women's Champions League resumes Tuesday with the quarterfinal first legs, and don't forget that all the action is available to watch for free through the DAZN UWCL YouTube channel.
Action begins Tuesday with Bayern Munich hosting Arsenal at Allianz Arena (1:45 p.m. ET) and continues at the Stadio Olimpico as Roma takes on Barcelona (4:00 p.m. ET). Wednesday features Lyon vs. Chelsea at Groupama Stadium (1:45 p.m. ET) followed by PSG against Wolfsburg at the Parc des Princes (4:00 p.m. ET).
A swift rush of blood to the head doomed Juventus in the dying moments of their 1-0 loss to José Mourinho’s Roma on Sunday. With the seconds ticking away and a goal imperative as Juventus clung to the hope of Champions League qualification, head coach Massimiliano Allegri turned to his bench and brought on 23-year-old Moise Kean as the final hope for salvation.
It took all of 24 matches but Cremonese finally won a Serie A game on Tuesday, and the most remarkable thing is that they recorded it over Roma after also shocking José Mourinho's team in the Coppa Italia quarterfinals at the beginning of the month.
No club in Europe's big five leagues had remained winless this long, but Cremonese — based in the Lombardy region of northern Italy — actually moved into 19th-place with all three points (12 overall) while dropping hapless Sampdoria (11 points) to dead last.
Al Cremonese le costó, pero finalmente lo consiguió. Con Johan Vásquez como titular, I Grigiorossi vencieron 2-1 a la AS Roma de Jose Mourinho y lograron su primera victoria de la temporada 2022-23 de la Serie A.
Cierto, no suena a gran cosa, pero considerando que se jugaba la jornada 24 del torneo, uno entiende y hasta empatiza con la emoción que se vivió en los festejos del equipo una vez que el juez central pitó el final del partido.
A rumor is going around the Twitter-sphere and internet that U.S. Soccer has AS Roma manager José Mourinho on its wish list for who will be the next USMNT head coach.

Con Hirving Lozano de titular y dándole uno que otro dolor de cabeza a José Mourinho, el Napoli venció a la AS Roma por 1-0 en el Stadio Olímpico. El triunfo puso al equipo del sur italiano al tope de la Serie A y aumentó a 11 su número de victorias consecutivas, contando liga local y Champions League.
El gol del Napoli vino en los pies del nigeriano Víctor Osimhen, quien a los 80 minutos se sacó de encima a Chris Smalling y batió con remate cruzado a Rui Patricio.
VICTOR JAMES OSIMHEN!
José Mourinho llenó de elogios a Andrés Guardado. Sí, al capitán de la selección mexicana que muchos quieren ver jubilado.
En la previa del duelo que enfrentará a la AS Roma con el Real Betis en la Europa League, el técnico analizó a su rival frente a los micrófonos de Fox Sports y no dudó en enumerar las buenas cualidades que caracterizan al Principito.
Mou alabó la experiencia de Guardado, así como ha ido modificando su juego para aportar con su talento al gran presente que viven los verdiblancos.
The San Siro, Italy’s modern Colosseum, was the stage for a battle between two of Serie A’s finest. Roma traveled north to face Inter Milan on Saturday, and after a thoroughly impressive beginning to the season for new signing Paulo Dybala, The Eternal City appears to have a new Caesar.
