Here’s the Player That Could Score the Goal for Lazio and Roma in Derby della Capitale

DBasia.news – Aleksandr Kolarov once again became the key performance of AS Roma. He even deserved the victory star of AS Roma in the Derby della Capitale against SS Lazio at Olimpico Stadium, Roma, Saturday.

No wonder, his free-kick was created at 71′ or just four minutes after the equal situation 1-1 by Ciro Immobile’s contribution. As we know, Roma were leading first at 45′ due to the goal from Lorenzo Pellegrini. Roma won the Derby della Capitale match with a 3-1 score after at 86′ Federico Fazio scored the third goal.

One Kolarov’s goal in this match also entitled him to the record book. He became the second person after Arne Selmosson who could score two goals in the Derby della Capitale. For your information, Kolarov once conceded Roma’s net when he was supporting Lazio in 2007-2010.

“It was in 1958 if I’m not wrong. Exactly 60 years. I always try to do my best, I knew sooner or later I would score a goal for the Giallorossi in the derby, so it was bound to happen,” Kolarov revealed.

Kolarov also contributed to keeping the mentality of his teammate, Fazio, from falling down. No wonder, Fazio did the blunder that caused Immobile conceded Robin Olsen’s net.

“I always tell Fazio, seeing as I am one of the oldest here, that the problem is not making a mistake, but getting back on your feet afterward,” Kolarov repeated his advice to Fazio.

“I want to compliment Lorenzo Pellegrini, who is very young, but today showed he can shoulder the pressure on the big occasion,” the Serbia national team captain added.

Thanks to this victory, Roma for the first time gained three points in two consecutive matches. Let’s say, Eusebio Di Francesco squad could exit the crisis.
