Como and Roma’s Stunning Surge: Who Else Will Join Europe’s Elite in Serie A’s Final Champions League Showdown?
Como, in their first season back in Serie A, walked right through it. Cesc Fabregas’s side hammered Cremonese 4-1 in a second half that descended into chaos at the Zini, with three Cremonese players, Djuric, Grassi, and Okereke, all receiving red cards in the space of a few minutes.
Lucas Da Cunha scored twice, including a converted penalty, as Como finished what has been a genuinely extraordinary campaign. Champions League football in their first season back.
Roma also did what was required, seeing off Verona 2-0 at the Olimpico. It was not always straightforward, the first half finished goalless, and it took a VAR-awarded penalty, initially saved by Montipo before Donyell Malen converted the rebound, to break the deadlock in the 56th minute.
