What a blow! What a humiliation! It’s just chaos for Roma! Incredible, just beyond words. Barcelona practically crushed AS Roma at the Camp Nou Stadium with a mega goleada 6-1. Ouch! I cannot believe it! Barcelona are now top leaders in Group securing their pass to the last 16 in the UEFA Champions League. Roma at least scoring the “honor goal” in the 91st minute with forward Edin Dzeko.
Contrary to the embarrassing defeat, Barcelona forwards Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar are just celebrating their spectacular victory thanks to their goals showing no mercy.
Roma are in the second position of Group E with just 5 points and a negative goal difference of -5.
Bottom line, it seems the Roman gladiators forgot they were playing
“to win” and instead went blank… amnesia. Roma dominated by the “Wonder trio Messi, Suarez, and Neymar.” Time to archive this defeat and get back to the winning path. I better go and prepare a “Chamomile tea” to forget this embarrassing defeat.
