What once seemed impossible is now very much within reach! The prospect of securing a European spot no longer feels unrealistic for Roma. While their performances remain inconsistent, they keep winning—and that’s what matters most.No one at the club is concerned with how the victories come, only that they do. Claudio Ranieri has breathed new life into the team, instilled belief, and reinvigorated the players—even when things aren’t going their way.⏱ | IT’S ALL OVER! ANOTHER THREE HUGE POINTS!DAJE ROMA 🟡🔴#ASRoma #RomaComo pic.twitter.com/x2ieKH8gDW— AS Roma English (@ASRomaEN) March 2, 2025 That was precisely the case against Como. Roma found itself on the ropes but fought back, turned the match in its favor, and secured a fourth consecutive Serie A win—2-1 (0-1). The Giallorossi are back and chasing Europe! And to think, just two and a half months ago, their situation seemed hopeless. It was after their last visit to Lake Como…Back then, the club was in crisis, much closer to the relegation zone than to a European spot. Cesc Fabregas’ team handed them a humbling defeat, but everything has since turned around—at least in terms of results. Roma hasn’t lost a single Serie A match since!Unbeaten in 11 consecutive league games, the latest victory came courtesy of Ranieri’s golden substitutions. His tactical adjustments made all the difference.AS Roma’s 11-straight unbeaten run in Serie A continues after a come-from-behind 2-1 victory over Como 🔥Claudio Ranieri is doing quite the job in the capital ❤️ pic.twitter.com/58BxUOdPOg— CBS Sports Golazo ⚽️ (@CBSSportsGolazo) March 2, 2025 Roma’s defense cracked just before halftime when Maximo Perrone played Lucas Da Cunha through on goal. Gianluca Mancini lost track of the Frenchman, allowing him to slot past Mile Svilar for the opening goal. Roma struggled to respond until Ranieri turned to his bench.⚽️ GOAL: Lucas Da Cunha🇮🇹 Roma 0-1 Comopic.twitter.com/gZ8Gbh2Y7E— Goals Xtra (@GoalsXtra) March 2, 2025 First, he brought on Artem Dovbyk and Stephan El Shaarawy, followed by Alexis Saelemaekers—who scored just two minutes after entering the pitch, finishing off a Zeki Celik cross from the right. Soon after, Mark Oliver Kempf made things even harder for Como. Already on a yellow card since the first half, the German defender couldn’t hold on until the final whistle—he was sent off.⚽️ GOAL: Saelemaekers🇮🇹 Roma 1-1 Comopic.twitter.com/0bssf0iQxf— Goals Xtra (@GoalsXtra) March 2, 2025 RED CARD FOR COMO!!! pic.twitter.com/btKD82qIqm— The Screenshot Lad (@thescreenlad) March 2, 2025 Despite being down to 10 men, Como nearly reclaimed the lead, but Assan Diao’s goal was ruled out for offside. Ranieri made another inspired substitution, bringing on Devin Rensch, and once again, he got it right. The Dutchman quickly played a one-touch pass to Dovbyk, who finally broke his scoring drought. The Ukrainian netted for the first time in a month—his longest goal drought in Serie A this season.⚽️ GOAL: Dovbyk🇮🇹 Roma 2-1 Comopic.twitter.com/qYEsmETswq— Goals Xtra (@GoalsXtra) March 2, 2025 As the final whistle blew, Ranieri could once again rub his hands in satisfaction. Since taking over the struggling side, the veteran coach has guided Roma to 30 points—only Inter and Napoli have managed more in that span. Had he arrived earlier, their European chances might be even stronger.
