Pugliesi ahead after 7′ with an own goal from Ibanez, equal to Dybala from a penalty in the 17th minute. The goalkeeper denies Abraham the lead three times
Lecce stops Roma at 1-1, with Mou’s Giallorossi now sharing third place with Milan who join them thanks to yesterday’s victory over Toro. Pugliesi took the lead after 7′ with an own goal by Ibanez and equal by Dybala on a penalty 10′ later due to hand ball by Strefezza. Then three miracles by Falcone on Abraham deny Roma the three points.
the match
—
First thrill for Roma in the 5th minute with Rui Patricio raising Gallo’s shot from outside for a corner. But the Apulian advantage comes from the flag: it’s the 7th minute Baschirotto throws himself at the ball, the ball slams into Ibanez and ends up behind the Giallorossi goalkeeper, it’s an own goal. Mou’s team risks again with Strefezza in the area, then draws. First miracle by Falcone on El Shaarawy but on the corner it is Strefezza himself who commits a clear hand ball, in the 17th minute, with Dybala who makes it 1-1 from the spot. In the 43rd minute Falcone surpasses himself on a close shot by Abraham. The duel reappears in the recovery, with the Lecce goalkeeper relaxing and putting in a corner. We go to rest on 1-1. The recovery opens in the same way: Abraham heads and Falcone flies for a corner. The Apulians then manage to contain the Giallorossi, with Pellegrini’s shot from the edge, very high, the only real chance of the very fragmented first half hour. In the 83rd minute Wijnaldum returned, coming on for Matic. But the result doesn’t change.
