He might be The Special One, but he definitely ain’t The Roman Emperor yet: Mou’s Roma lose to Lazio

Jose Mourinho seemed taken aback looking at his woeful side as Roma suffered a bitter defeat to their city rivals, Lazio, 1-0 in the Derby della Capitale.The big Rome derby was played in a sensational atmosphere, embellished with tons of flares and flags on both ends of the stadium. However, that emphatic battle didn’t seem to inspire the players, especially Mourinho’s, which resulted in a slow-paced game.DERBY #RomaLazio pic.twitter.com/LHjGhzhuH7— Jacopo Aliprandi (@AliprandiJacopo) November 6, 2022 Tammy Abraham was isolated in the final third and was nowhere near the chance to score and maybe decide this thriller.Without Wijnaldum and Dybala – their probably best players, who are sidelined for injuries – the Giallorossi lacked creation and rushed straight into Maurizio Sarri’s carefully placed trap in the midfield.Lazio dug deep and patiently to earn a massive victory that launched them to third place in the Serie A table.🔴 𝔻𝕖𝕣𝕓𝕪 𝕕𝕖𝕝𝕝𝕒 ℂ𝕒𝕡𝕚𝕥𝕒𝕝𝕖 🔵AS Roma on the left and Lazio on the right. What an atmosphere!! 🇮🇹 pic.twitter.com/09rvjGzIZi— They Think Kits All Over (@TheyThinkKits) November 6, 2022 They scored from their first and literally only chance of the game, accepting the gift of Roma’s defence and Ibanez’s unforgivable mistake near the half-an-hour mark.Felipe Anderson netted past Rui Patricio, and it proved to be enough as the rest of the fixture remained goalless.The nominal home side at the Stadio Olimpico, Roma went closest to scoring four minutes after going behind when Nicolo Zaniolo’s deflected shot smacked out of the crossbar.But Mou’s side didn’t create enough to deserve a win and drop down a place to fifth following their fourth defeat of the season.SERIE AFridayUdinese – Lecce 1-1 (0-1)/Beto 68 – Colombo 33/SaturdayEmpoli – Sassuolo 1-0 (0-0)/Baldanzi 64/Salernitana – Cremonese 2-2 (2-1)/Piatek 3, Coulibaly 38 – Okereke 12, Ciofani 89/Atalanta – Napoli 1-2 (1-2)/Lookman 16 pen – Osimhen 23, Elmas 35/Milan – Spezia 2-1 (1-0)/Hernandez 21, Giroud 89 – Maldini 59 /SundayBologna – Torino 2-1 (0-1)/Orsolini 64, Posch 73 – Lukic 26/Monza – Verona 2-0 (1-0)/Carlos Augusto 68, Colpani 90/Sampdoria – Fiorentina 0-2 (0-1)/Bonaventura 4, Milenkovic 58/Roma – Lazio 0-1 (0-1)/Andersen 29/22.45: (3.05) Juventus (3.35) Inter (2.55)***odds are subject to change
