His condition is still unknown.It was 1-0 to Jose Mourinho’s team when the unlucky man had to be rushed to the hospital. It was a chilling moment as the entire stand full of Roma die-hard fans stopped with their singing and chanting while the doctors were fighting for their comrade’s life.FT A much-needed victory this evening for Roma, who defeat Spezia thanks to goals from Chris Smalling and Ibanez. All eyes now turn to this weekend’s incredibly important showdown against an in-form Atalanta. GRAZIE ROMA! pic.twitter.com/QYwKhTaOqP— RomaPress (@ASRomaPress) December 13, 2021 On the pitch, Roma took the lead early on thanks to a close-range header by former Manchester United defender Chris Smalling. Another Englishman, Tammy Abraham provided the assist with a slight touch of the head that allowed Smalling to nod in unchallenged. The Giallorossi were the better team in the first half but they allowed too much space for the visitors who played with no feat and attempted to get back into the game and maybe pull away from the drop zone.Managed by former Barcelona, Inter and Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Thiago Motta, the visitors came close to levelling through David Strelec, but the game was pretty much over ten minutes into the second half when Roger Ibanez headed in from a Jordan Veretout cross.Wednesday, 18.00: (2.55) Tunisia (2.95) Egypt (3.05)Spezia players thought they’d pulled one back late on but Bastoni’s goal was rightly chalked off due to an offside in the build-up.There was still time for an incredibly silly sending off for Roma’s young forward Felix Afena-Gyan. The forward controlled the ball with his arm before finding the net but the referee spotted his illegal move and showed him his second yellow of the night. The three points lift the Romans to sixth in the table, one place above Juventus. Let’s home that the unlucky Roma fan recovers in time to watch his beloved team soon.SERIE A – ROUND 17FridayGenoa – Sampdoria 1-3 (0-1)/Destro 78 – Gabbiadini 7, 67, Caputo 49/SaturdayFiorentina – Salernitana 4-0 (1-0)/Bonaventura 31, Vlahovic 51, 84, Maleh 90/Venezia – Juventus 1-1 (0-1)/Aramu 55 – Morata 32/Udinese – Milan 1-1 (1-0)/Beto 17 – Ibrahimovic 90+4/SundayTorino – Bologna 2-1 (1-0)/Sanabria 24, Soumaoro 69 og – Orsonlini 79 pen/Verona – Atalanta 1-2 (1-1)/Simeone 22 – Miranchuk 37, Koopmeiners 62/Napoli – Empoli 0-0Sassuolo – Lazio 2-1 (0-1)/Berardi 63, Raspadori 69 – Zaccagni 6/Inter – Cagliari 4-0 (1-0)/Martinez 29, 68, Sanchez 50, Calhanoglu 66/MondayRoma – Spezia 2-0 (1-0)/Smalling 6, Ibanez 56/
