Roma emerged victorious over Lazio in the tense Rome derby thanks to Mancini's goal

On April 6th, in the 31st round of the Italian Serie A, the local teams Roma and Lazio clashed at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome. Both teams had recently undergone coaching changes, adding even more intrigue to this match for neutral fans.

In the first half, Roma appeared sharper, and Lazio failed to register a shot on target. Therefore, Mancini's goal, which concluded Dybala's corner kick just before halftime, seemed quite logical. Igor Tudor attempted to level the playing field with halftime substitutions, and the second half proved to be much more interesting. Initially, El Shaarawy hit the post, and then Kamada's goal was disallowed for offside.

The derby atmosphere truly manifested itself in the second half of the second half. Players didn't hesitate to provoke each other and make strong tackles, with Paredes standing out in this regard. Despite the heated exchanges and Lazio's attempts to equalize, the match ended with a minimal victory for De Rossi's charges. It's worth noting that Tammy Abraham made his first appearance of the season after recovering from a serious injury.
