Daniele De Rossi's Roma have another step forward compared to that of his predecessor Jose Mourinho. After the six victories in seven matches that brought the Giallorossi back into the Champions League zone, the young coach also gives a football lesson to one of his "masters", Roberto De Zerbi.
Roma beat Brighton 4-0 at the Olimpico, playing a great match and, also taking advantage of the English defence, securing passage to the quarter-finals of the Europa League.
Dybala opens the scoring and collects an assist from Paredes in the 13th minute, beats the goalkeeper and scores the 1-0. In the 43rd minute Lukaku doubles the lead, taking advantage of an error by the opposing defence, stealing the ball and putting it into the net. In the second half the Giallorossi spread with goals in the 64th and 68th minutes by Mancini and Cristante, both assisted from the left by El Shaarawy.
And the first leg of the round of 16 brings good news for Milan too: the match against Slavia Prague ends 4-2 with Rossoneri goals from Giroud, Reijnders, Loftus-Cheek and Pulisic.
A hard-fought victory, despite Diouf's expulsion in the first half which forced the Czechs to play with 10 men.
