Roma closed out official Serie A competition ahead of the 2022 World Cup with a 1-1 draw against Torino on November 13. In the previous two league matches, Roma lost 0-1 to Lazio, and only drew 1-1 against Sassuolo.
Unsatisfactory results have kept Jose Mourinho’s troops stuck in 7th place in the Serie A standings with 8 wins, 3 draws and 4 defeats. A total of 27 points, Roma are still 14 points adrift of Napoli who lead the league.
But there is still a chance for the Giallorossi to enter the top four. The reason is, the teams above him are only 6 points apart, namely AC Milan who is in second place, while Juventus is third (31 points), Lazio (30 points).
To catch up because of a long holiday, Mourinho invited his troops to play a friendly match. Unfortunately the results were still not good, against a weak team like Nagoya, Roma were unable to score a goal, ending 0-0. Meanwhile, facing Marinos at the Japan National Stadium, Roma scored 3 goals, but the scores were equalized.
On the other hand, Cadiz continues to make improvements. Sergio Gonzalez’s side have been hurting as they ended the competition before the World Cup by finishing 19th in La Liga. The points collected are only 11 points.
Therefore, The Piratas have to play a lot of friendly matches to strengthen their performance when entering the remainder of the 2022-23 season. Cadiz started the warm-up with a 4-2 win over Manchester United, but lost 3-4 to Wolverhampton in the last game.
The match against Roma will be the last duel in the warm-up game for Sergio Gonzalez’s men before facing Almeria on December 30 in official La Liga competition. Meanwhile, Roma will not be strengthened by Paulo Dybala. The former Juventus striker will defend Argentina against France in the 2022 World Cup Final on Sunday, December 18.
