With a Soulé assist, Roma clinch victory in the Clásico against Lazio | OneFootball

Roma won the classic of the Italian capital: they triumphed in a tense duel against Lazio by 1-0, thanks to a key assist from the Argentine Matías Soulé and the decisive goal by the Italian Lorenzo Pellegrini, as visitors, on matchday 4 of Italy's Serie A.

Gian Piero Gasperini's team, without the Argentine Paulo Dybala on the field due to injury, found their great beacon in Soulé, the player to whom they delivered every ball to create danger. The 'Loba' improved radically, and on the brink of halftime, a mistake in the exit by the Portuguese Nuno Tavares ended with the ball at the feet of the Mar del Plata native.

The left-footer took his time until he saw Pellegrini arriving. He passed the ball to the reborn Italian, once the team's captain, who crossed the shot and scored the only goal of the match, in his first start after having been on the market all season and in what is likely to be his last season in Rome.

With this victory, Roma extended their reign in the capital, undefeated since January 10, 2024, winning three of the last four duels, with a draw in the most recent one, in April 2025. It is the third victory for Gian Piero Gasperini's team this season, having only lost in the match against Torino and now positioned in the top spots. On the other hand, it is Lazio's third defeat, having only won against Verona in a poor start to the season that places them at the lower end of the table.
