In the city you are experiencing a real daydream. All thanks to a team and a coach who have been able to create a united group that plays great football, that wins and convinces. Against De Rossi’s team, the Bologna she dominated far and wide, proving to be a great player in this championship. Yes, because against Lazio, Roma and Atalanta the rossoblù have accumulated 18 points out of 18 available. Today, with five days to go until the end of the championship, Bologna finds itself +7 from the Giallorossi and +8 from the Dea (both with one game less).
Bologna, the countdown for reaching the Champions League begins
Well yes, as the Courier of Bolognawith 8 points in the next 5 Bologna would be mathematically qualified for the next one Champions League. The victory against Roma brings with it several key points for this brilliant team. First of all, Thiago Motta’s ability to always get the formation right despite some apparently questionable choices such as that of deploying El Azzouzi as an attacking midfielder. In the end, Thiago is always right. The Moroccan, in fact, took the cover again at the Olimpico: after the goal against Lazio he also opened the ball against the Giallorossi by designing an acrobatic overhead kick that gave goosebumps. In addition to this, the jewel Joshua Zirkzee is also back to play the role. The Dutchman hadn’t found the net since last March 3 in Bergamo against Atalanta. Motta’s number 9 shined again against Roma, scoring the goal of the momentary 0-2 and providing a perfect assist for Saelemaekers’ goal. Yes, because the Belgian thought it best to put the icing on the cake by knocking out the Giallorossi after Azmoun’s goal which had closed the gap. After such a championship, today in Bologna there is an air that gives rise to hope and the countdown to the Champions League has begun.
This is how you play only in paradise
After the heroic victory on the Roma pitch, Motta’s team returned to Casteldebole around three-quarters of midnight. To welcome the coach and team, around 1500 fans were present at the Niccolò Galli in the rain, euphoric for the rossoblù’s feat. Chants and smoke bombs from the arrival of the bus at the Technical Center roundabout until the players exit the gates in their cars. Bologna is daydreaming and wanted to communicate this to the team with a banner that reads “This is how you only play in heaven”, recalling a phrase from the coach of the last scudetto Fulvio Bernardini after a 7-1 against Modena.
