AS Roma Faces Another Setback with Disappointing Defeat to Como

AS Roma’s struggles this season continued as they suffered a surprising and disappointing defeat against Serie B side Como in a recent fixture. The 2-1 loss has further amplified concerns about the team’s inconsistent performances and their inability to capitalize on key opportunities.

The match, held at Stadio Sinigaglia, saw Como take an early lead through a well-executed goal by Alberto Cerri in the 18th minute. Despite Roma’s efforts to equalize, the team looked disjointed in attack, failing to create clear chances. Como doubled their lead in the second half with a stunning strike from Patrick Cutrone, leaving Roma on the back foot.

A late goal from Paulo Dybala provided a glimmer of hope for the visitors, but it was too little, too late as Como held firm to secure a memorable victory.

Manager Under Pressure

This defeat places further scrutiny on AS Roma manager José Mourinho, who has struggled to find consistency with his squad this season. Injuries, tactical issues, and underwhelming performances from key players have left Roma languishing in the mid-table of Serie A, and now struggling in cup competitions against lower-tier sides.

In the post-match press conference, Mourinho expressed frustration with his team’s performance:
“We didn’t play with the urgency or quality required to win. Credit to Como for their effort, but we should have done much better. This is not acceptable for a team like Roma.”

Fans Demand Change

The loss has not gone down well with fans, who have taken to social media to voice their frustration. Many are calling for changes in the squad and tactical approach, while others are questioning the long-term direction of the club under the current management.

What’s Next?

Roma will need to regroup quickly as they face a challenging stretch of fixtures in both domestic and European competitions. If the team fails to turn things around, their hopes of securing a top-four finish in Serie A or making an impact in Europe could slip further away.

This latest setback serves as a wake-up call for AS Roma, highlighting the urgent need for improvements if they are to salvage their season.
