Soccer: Roma take Rome derby 2-0 over Lazio
Pellegrini, Saelemaekers kill game in 20 mins
As Roma took the Rome derby 2-0 over
Lazio Sunday night.
The Giallorossi went two up within the first 18 minutes through
a superbly curled finish from lifelong Roma fan, captain and
Italy attacking midfielder Lorenzo Pellegrini and a jabbed-in
rebound by Belgium winger Alexis Saelemaekers, and never really
looked in danger of relinquishing that lead despite several
second half efforts from the Biancocelesti.
Newly appointed veteran Roma coach Claudio Ranieri, who won the
Premiership with Leicester in the ultimate sporting fairy-tale
in 2016, kept his perfect five-from-five derby record.
Roma have now won four of the last six derbies.
