Roma 2-1 Midtjylland Player Ratings: Italian Side Secure Narrow Win in Home UEL Game

AS Roma headed into the UEFA Europa League fixture on the back of a sublime form, winning four of their last five games across all competitions. The Italian side started the proceedings against FC Midtjylland on a promising note at the Stadio Olimpico.

Neil El Aynaoui gave the home side an early lead in the AS Roma vs FC Midtjylland game, scoring only seven minutes into the match. Roma held their defence after taking the 1-0 lead. FC Midtjylland made some good efforts ahead of the first-half whistle, but the equaliser never came. The Roma vs FC Midtjylland score remained unchanged at the break.

The second half turned a bit chaotic. Bryan Cristante saw a yellow card for AS Roma right after the start. Both teams made a few changes after the hour mark. AS Roma enjoyed more ball possession but were unable to increase their lead. Neither Roma nor Midtjylland looked positive in terms of finishing, as the two teams fumbled in the final third multiple times during the UEL game in Rome.

Stephan El Shaarawy finally lit up the contest in the 83rd minute, registering the second goal for AS Roma. FC Midtjylland pulled one back through Paulinho a few moments later, keeping the game alive. However, the comeback goal never came as Roma vs Midtjylland match ended 2-1 in favour of the hosts.
