Tammy Abraham’s penalty after nine minutes into stoppage time ended Roma’s winless run as Jose Mourinho’s team scraped a 1-0 victory at 10-man Spezia in Serie A.
Roma manage to pull of a last minute win against Spezia after dominating for the majority of the game but failing to score despite their opponents were down to ten men for the entire second half.
Abraham’s penalty came after Roma had hit the woodwork four times and wasted a number of chances at Spezia, who had played most of the match with 10 men after defender Kelvin Amian was sent off at the end of the first half.
It was Roma’s first win in five matches and lifted them up to sixth, six points behind fourth-place Juventus. Spezia remain four points off the relegation zone. All Serie A matches have started five minutes late this weekend accompanied by a peace message following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
Roma coach Jose Mourinho was serving the first of a two-match suspension following his actions toward the referee during and after last week’s 2-2 draw against Hellas Verona.
