[Saba Sports News] In this round of Serie A matches, Roma coach Ivan Juric and defender Gianluca Mancini, who had previously argued, publicly embraced and reconciled. In Round 9 of Serie A, Roma suffered a heavy 1-5 defeat against Fiorentina away from home, and during halftime, Mancini had a heated argument with coach Juric. However, in Round 10 of Serie A, Mancini still started and even wore the captain’s armband for Roma. After Paulo Dybala scored in the 19th minute of the match, Mancini ran to the sidelines to embrace coach Juric in celebration. Mancini stated: “We will regroup; we really give our all in every match, but last Sunday was a disaster. I must wake up; whoever wears this jersey will give their all—believe me. I can look you in the eye and say that the team is still with the coach; trust us. We will focus on the pitch; we know we must work harder.” After their embrace, Mancini felt some discomfort in his leg muscles and requested a quick massage on his thigh before returning to play the full match.
