Serie A, Roma hit three past Cremonese to reclaim top spot in the table | OneFootball

Roma responds to Napoli’s victory over Atalanta by scoring three goals against Nicola’s Cremonese. The Giallorossi return to the top spot alone, with 27 points, awaiting the Milan Derby. Gasperini can rejoice, especially for Ferguson’s first goal in the league, who came on in the second half: the Irishman hadn’t scored since October 26, 2024.

Cremonese-Roma 1-3: Giallorossi top Serie A

At 3 PM, Cremonese-Roma was played at the Zini. Gasperini’s boys prevailed 3-1, climbing back to first place in the standings, overtaking Napoli, who last night defeated Palladino’s Atalanta. The Giallorossi, without Dovbyk and Dybala, entrusted the keys to the attack to Tommaso Baldanzi. However, it was the man in the best form of the Gasperini era who broke the deadlock: Matias Soulé, completely revitalized compared to last year. The same goes for Lorenzo Pellegrini, who was set to leave in the summer, then stayed and is now, with a string of good performances, carving out more and more space for himself.

In the second half, Evan Ferguson scored his first goal in a Roma shirt, having not scored for a club since October 26, 2024, when he netted for Brighton against Wolverhampton. Wesley then sealed the score with the third goal, earning himself the man of the match title. Folini scored a consolation goal in stoppage time, also his first goal in Serie A.

A golden moment for Roma, who can keep on scoring. If we consider that just last year, after twelve matches, the Giallorossi were twelfth with only 13 points and now are first with 27, we can understand the masterpiece Giampiero Gasperini is creating, despite numerous injuries and a transfer market that didn’t fully satisfy him.
