Cremonese, 17th position with 0 points and a negative goal difference of -1
AS Roma win the Serie A Week 2 game defeating Cremonese on Monday 22 August 2022 at the Olimpico di Roma Stadium in Rome, Italy. Roma with full 6 points. Cremonese play openly for all 90 minutes and also touches the net on several occasions. Cremonese remain without points. In the end, however, it was the quality of Roma that prevailed. In the next round, Roma will play against Juventus at the Allianz Stadium, while Cremonese will play at home against Torino.
Roma opened the score in the 65th minute. It is Chris Smalling to defeat Cremonese goalkeeper Ionut Radu with a headed shot to the center. The assist is by Lorenzo Pellegrini with a cross following a corner conceded by Matteo Bianchetti.

✅ Stats before the game. The next will be the 15th match between Roma and Cremonese in Serie A, the first since 11 February 1996 (3-0 for Roma, scored by Di Biagio, Balbo and Cappioli). The Giallorossi have won 10 times (2N, 2P), including the last three.
Cremonese won only one of the seven away games played in the top league against Roma (1N, 5P): on 3 October 1993 thanks to goals from Dezotti on a penalty and Tentoni (Benedetti for the Giallorossi). Considering also the last game of last season, Roma have not conceded a goal from two Serie A matches: the Giallorossi have not done better in the competition since 2018 (a series of four under the guidance of Eusebio Di Francesco).
José Mourinho could become the third Roma coach in the era of three points to win (from 1994/95) to win both of the first two games played by the Giallorossi in a new Serie A championship for two consecutive seasons, after Luciano Spalletti (2006 / 07 and 2007/08) and Rudi Garcia (2013/14 and 2014/15).
👉 Lineup AS ROMA (3-4-2-1): Rui Patricio; Mancini, Smalling, Ibanez; Karsdorp, Pellegrini, Cristante, Spinazzola; Dybala, Zaniolo (44’El Shaarawy); Abraham.
👉 Lineup CREMONESE (3-4-1-2): Radu; Lochoshvili, Chiriches, Aiwu; Ghiglione, Pickel, Ascacibar, Valeri; Zanimacchia; Okereke, Dessers.
