Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: AS Roma gets underway.
- 2' A stunning finish from Zlatan Ibrahimovic — that came from absolutely nowhere!
- 7' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Theo Hernandez made 352 appearances and scored 38 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
