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 with a 1-0 victory, thanks to a key assist from Argentine Matías Soulé and a decisive goal by Italian Lorenzo Pellegrini, as visitors, on matchday 4 of Italy's Serie A.

Gian Piero Gasperini's team, without Argentine Paulo Dybala on the field due to injury, found their great beacon in Soulé, the player to whom they entrusted every ball to create danger. The 'Loba' improved radically, and just before halftime, a mistake 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's arrival. 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 being 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, unbeaten since January 10, 2024, winning three of the last four duels, with a draw in the most recent one, in April 2025. It is Gian Piero Gasperini's team's third victory this season, having only lost to Torino and already positioned in the upper ranks. In contrast, 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.
