The Roma game against Lecce was one of the most entertaining games in the Italian Serie A last weekend as it produced two stoppage time goals from to home side to win a game they were trailing by a goal to nil after 90 minutes of normal time. Romelu Lukaku who earlier missed a penalty in that game was the hero of the game as he stole the show in the dying minutes of that particular encounter.
The Fiorentina game against Juventus was also a good game game for the Turin club who hanged on to grab an important win.

AS Roma almost lost points in the match against Lecce. And I didn't expect Lecce to play that well. They were able to respond to every attack made by AS Roma. In that match, Lukaku made a mistake because he failed to take advantage of the penalty kick properly. The shot was too easy for the Lecce goalkeeper to read but then he made up for it by scoring a goal in the final minutes.

Meanwhile for the Juventus vs Fiorentina match. It turns out that Fiorentina is quite scary when they play in front of their own supporters. Well, actually Juventus was also a little overwhelmed in this match. Because Fiorentina continued to build attack after attack. Luckily Juventus was able to maintain their lead until the final minute.

Dybala is a great and experienced player, so I don't believe if you say Dybala is not ready to play in certain situation. Because of course, as an experienced player, then of course Dybala will also be ready to play in any situation in every match. So ya, maybe Lukaku is still very ambitious about having lots of goals, so Dybala gave Lukaku that penalty but unfortunately, Lukaku missed. But indeed, at least Lukaku was also able to pay for his failure in this match by managing to score the winning goal in the extra minute and in the end, AS Roma won with a score of 2-1.

Roma definitely got a good win, that's an important one if you ask me and should be considering that situation a little different in my book. I am not saying that they are going to end up with a situation that could be considered all that troublesome, but it could definitely be something that could take some time. I think tis going to be all the better if we give it some time, and could be not all that confusing.

Hopefully, we could end up with a situation that could be considered close enough for Roma, look at the league table, they yare not far away from the top, if they could keep this up, fourth place fight is not too far away from them. They just lost last week, so their bad days are not behind them just yet, they could still end up begin a little difficult to handle, we just need to make sure that we bet on the right games and be careful when betting on Roma, they are still not guaranteed to win every game, they could lose against smaller teams, who knows.

Juventus in past seasons have been dominant in their league and are still driven to dominate. Their team spirit and vigor does it for them. They've had tough games in both their professional league and as well the Continental contest and to some good extent they've made ways to excel in these contests.

 Alot of happenings may also tend to cost a team some wasted efforts so they just have to be careful in their dealings just so they'd still be on track. They've got some great players in their team and they just have to prove their capacity at all levels. There's so much hope on them and they can actually convert these hopes to good successes happening.
Tougher games will still come but I believe they can still scale through.

 Fiorentina over that last 3-4 fixtures against Juventus has proved to be a tough one for the Old Lady but Juventus being a top team came out top of this encounter, Juventus after gaining all 3 points secured their spot in the 2nd position along with Inter Milan who tops the league, Allegri is a very good coach of impeccable quality having won the Serie A title of recent. He knows the cues on what’s required to steal the league. Legal actions from Newcastle could disrupt the club’s poor form now it’s left for both coaching crew and players to try to be at their best.

It's really strange that AC Milan is experiencing consecutive defeats, even though they really need this victory to increase their confidence before facing PSG in the Champions League. Pioli did not take advantage of this moment, his strategic style is very easy for opponents to read and is too monotonous. AC Milan should look for a new coach. Because the streak of defeats experienced by Milan was very embarrassing due to poor tactics and strange decisions, even though Milan's current players are above average, besides, Roberto De Zerbi also wants to coach Milan in my opinion. Congratulations to Udinese on their first win in Serie A this season.

Lukaku's 100% penalty success record in Italy was ended. Only the penalty taker is at risk of missing the penalty kick. He held his head regretfully while coach Mourinho seemed dumbfounded on the training bench. Missed the penalty kick, but Romelu Lukaku made up for it with the decisive goal in the last minute. He scored the winning goal for the home team, making him unable to contain his emotions.
As for Dybala, I don't feel he is ready to play in set situations, and I believe Mourinho's decision is still correct.

Verona is still having bad results so far and even in the last 5 matches they still haven't won at all. Most recently they lost at home against Monza and that ended quite badly 1-3. I feel Verona will still be a bottom team this season and they are also in the relegation zone. Meanwhile, for Monza, this is their 3rd win in the last 5 matches and they have established themselves by being in 8th position in the standings. Every team in Serie A has a performance that sometimes goes up and down, that's why it's quite difficult to predict the results that will come out.

It was an interesting game in the second half that made Lecce to equalized the goal but Roma players never give up because, they know that they can still do something in few minutes to the end of the game which they did to secured another goal to beaten Lecce yesterday. Roma is still maintaining a good position in the Italy serie A table but their coach need to work on their goalkeeper and defenders because, they made some mistakes that gave Lecce opportunity to equalized the first goal because there was little challenge at the moment among the defenders and goalkeeper.

Juventus did a nice job in this game to secured 3 points because, I wanted to change my mind with the prediction the way Fiorentina players was blocking Juventus strikers not to create a good opportunity in the first half until their coach made some changes in the second half that made them to created a nice opportunity to secured a good goal to achieve victory.

When the game was still leveled, Lukaku and Dybala had a lovely one-two pass that was beautiful to watch, but Dybala's effort wasn't enough to make it into the goal post.
Lameck Bands was quite useful on the left wing. He caused that defender lots of issues and wasn't able to keep up if he wasn't supported by his teammates. His workings lead to that goal in the second half but he failed to make a good final pass though it worked for them as Sweden winger ( Pontus Almqvist ) made good movements to shoot that ball into goal.

The Penalty miss made the game hard for Roma! Dyballa shoulda been the player for that penalty, there's no way possible he wouldn't have scored that goal to give them the lead.
They should improve, this pattern of coming from behind doesn't work for all smaller sides. Lecce never played like the the underdog's anyways.

Ac Milan is experiencing a bad situation and indeed in the last few matches they have not won. Losing against PSG, against Juventus, drawing against Napoli, now losing against Udinese, even though Udinese is at the bottom of the standings and playing at home, Pioli should be fired because the longer he stays, the defeat will cover the AC Milan team. Is Milan's current downturn because Karma fired Maldini, even though he was the most influential person in Milan all this time.

Because in my opinion the crisis is not the player. But the crisis is in Pioli. The Milan squad should be able to. Only tactics that the opponent can guess, and the tactics do not develop. Maldini's departure began to show its effects, divisions and the team's fighting spirit decreased.

It was a dramatic win for AS Roma this week against Lecce. They came back in extra time in the second half after being a goal down. I thought it was going to be AS Roma's second consecutive defeat when I saw the time remaining in the 90th minute. But Sardar Azmoun scored to equalize and 3 minutes later Romelu Lukaku scored to turn the game around.

In another match, Juventus managed to steal 3 points from Fiorentina headquarters with a thin score of 0-1. They must be grateful for this result, because if you look at the match, Fiorentina actually played better.

Lukaku bring Roma to victory in the match against Lecce, the dramatic comeback made by Mourinho squad brought them to 3 points and are now in 7th position with 17 points. Lukaku deserves to be called a hero of victory, and his loan from Chelsea has really benefited Roma. I have repeatedly said that management must try to make Lukaku status permanent at the end of the season, what is clear is that the Belgian striker does not want to return to Stamford Bridge after being dumped by Pochettino.

This victory is important capital for them for their next match in the Europa League, Slavia Praha will test their strength again on matchday four. Personally, I would be the favorite for them to qualify as winners of Group G, they managed to sweep the previous three matches with a win, I think they can continue this positive trend.

Yes, the bother teams performed well, but seriously, I never expected much from Lecce yesterday because they were away, but honestly, Lecce played to fans expectations. Yes, Roma was lucky to won the match that was played yesterday, but the truth is that Roma worked hard toward achieving that, and that is why the lucky shined on the team, because Roma was a team that dominated the field in that match, and to be honest, they deserve the winning. It was a Roma home match, and I didn't expect less than a draw in the match. It was my belief that yesterday, if Roma were not able to win, the less I was expecting from them was a draw, but winning was what I predicted for Roma because I don't have believe that Lecce can succeed to defeat them.

Yes, I also didn't expect that either. Roma luck in that match was very big, when Lukaku failed in execute a penalty but Roma was still lucky. In the last minutes when Roma succeeded in getting one score, the Lecce players panicked they lost focus at that time so the Roma players took advantage of their good momentum. Especially Dybala who was great in that match, without him perhaps Roma would not have gotten full points. Indeed Lukaku is still a great player in making scores, there is no doubt that he is an important key in the Roma squad, and there is a big possibility that he will add his score because he is a striker.

I remember when Lukaku joined Roma people were thinking he could never be a good player there because of everything that happened with this player when he was playing in Inter Milan and he didn't stay there while the fans of this team were expecting him to stay and he started negotiations with Juventus.
But Lukaku had a good performance so far with Mourinho and he saved his team last night.

Indeed, Lecce is not a weak team this season and they even surprised everyone at the start of this season with a series of previous wins which made them feel like they were in the top 4. However, in the end they lost their consistency and had to be thrown back into the middle of the table and now they are in 11th position in the standings after having never won again in 5 matches. A good result from Roma and this dramatic victory achieved in the minute of injury time, Azmoun and Lukaku deserve praise in this match. Mourinho certainly doesn't want to continue to be down and he is doing a good job and correcting all the mistakes they made at the start of the season.

For Juventus, they maintained their 1 goal lead until the match was over and were lucky they didn't concede at all because their opponents were also quite strong, namely Fiorentina. An extra 3 points and Juventus deserved it.

AC Milan started the Italian Serie A season on a very good note and were even topping the league standings at some point but their recent poor results and performance has made many to question the strength of the team when it comes to challenging for the Italian scudetto this season.
The club manager must as a matter of urgency fix the problem behind the club's recent poor results or settle for just surviving to remain in the top flight next season. Unless there's an improvement, AC Milan might not be finish the season in top four. Napoli who are currently one point behind them are trying to get past the Milan club in the league table

Maybe they will drop a little lower (Napoli are only one point behind) if they don’t remember how to score goals. I think that they have already dropped out of the championship race - two teams with a good margin ahead, which means the likelihood of overtaking them is extremely small. Their only real goal for the season is to at least take third place in the group stage of the Champions League and qualify for the Europa League.

I don't know how to explain that Milan lost the match against Udinese, when they should have won to earn points. Maybe it was because Milan's next game is against PSG, where they should try to win to stay in the Champions League, although they have little chance because they are in last place in the group.
