Roma chases away the nightmare Lecce and flies to the quarters

The match had started badly for Mourinho’s Roma, down by a goal in the 15 ‘(Calabresi’s goal), so much so that one could think of bad historical precedents with the Apulian Giallorossi. But Kumbulla took care of the nightmares, who went on the net just before the end of the first half. In the second half, thanks also to the expulsion of Gargiulo from Lecce in the 62nd minute, Roma secured the result and qualification with Abraham (in the 54th minute) and Shomurodov (in the 81st minute). —
