This was announced by the Lega Calcio Serie A. The decision was not liked by Roma, who are busy competing in the Europa League. “Unfair decision, a step backwards for Italy” the Friedkin club announced in an official note “As Roma – we read –, with its European results and four consecutive semi-finals, has contributed to the UEFA ranking and therefore to the fifth slot for Italian teams in the next Champions League like few other clubs. Despite this, Lega Serie A president Lorenzo Casini has endorsed an unfair decision that will force Roma to face Bayer Leverkusen at a disadvantage. This represents a clear step back for the entire football system in Italy”. Then Roma concludes in its note: “The team, the players and the staff of As Roma reaffirm their commitment to oppose this unjustified adversity and to achieve, with the support of their incredible fans, the maximum objectives of the season”.
