AS Rome learned a lesson on the Genoa pitch: Jose Mourinho’s team conceded its third defeat of the season to the promoted side (4-1) as part of the 6th day of the Italian Championship, Thursday .

Roma was surprised from the start by a shot from Albert Gudmundsson (5th). The Romans thought they had achieved the most difficult thing by quickly equalizing through Cristante (22nd), but Genoa took the lead again just before returning to the locker room with a superb combination between Gudmundsson and Morten Thorsby, concluded by a half-volley from Mateo Retegui. Thorsby (74th) and Junior Messias (81st) took advantage of the generosity of the Roman defense to increase the score.

Present in the grandstand of the Luigi-Ferraris stadium, Roma legend Francesco Totti left the stadium after Genoa’s fourth goal. His former team, which was aiming for a return to the Champions League next season, finds itself fighting to remain in the elite. Roma is in fact 16th in the standings with five points, ten less than the leader, Inter, and only two more than Udinese who currently occupy 18th place, synonymous with relegation. Genoa jumped to 11th place with 7 points.

In the other two matches of the evening, Monza and Bologna drew 0-0, as did Frosinone and Fiorentina (1-1).
