Roma’s recent struggles seemed to ease a bit with new coach Ivan Juri? securing two wins in two league matches with the Giallorossi. The team’s homegrown midfielder, Niccolò Pisilli, who has a deep-rooted connection to Roma having progressed through its youth team, scored his first Serie A goal to help Roma come from behind to defeat Venezia 2-1 on Sunday. Despite the victory, fans were vocal in their displeasure during the first half as Venezia took the lead, but Roma managed to turn the tide in the second half.

Napoli will be hoping to extend their impressive streak as they prepare to host winless Monza following Roma’s triumph. The victory over Venezia marked a positive turn for Roma after securing their first win of the season under Juri?, who took over from the dismissed Daniele De Rossi. The team faced protests from fans during their previous match against Udinese, and excitement was somewhat subdued by a 1-1 draw against Athletic Bilbao in the Europa League midweek.

Venezia surprised Roma by taking the lead just before halftime, but Roma fought back in the second half. Despite Venezia having a goal ruled out for offside early in the second half, Bryan Cristante’s deflected shot found the back of the net to level the score. Eight minutes later, young midfielder Pisilli headed in a corner kick to complete Roma’s comeback and secure the victory.

In another match, Torino suffered their first league defeat of the season, losing 3-2 at home to Lazio. Torino, who was the surprise leader going into the weekend, fell behind early as Nuno Tavares set up Matteo Guendouzi for the opening goal. Lazio extended their lead through Boulaye Dia, but Che Adams pulled one back for Torino. Tijjani Noslin sealed the win for Lazio, with Saul Coco scoring a consolation goal for Torino in stoppage time.

Meanwhile, Como managed to defeat 10-man Hellas Verona 3-2 in an eventful Serie A weekend. Overall, the recent results have brought a mix of excitement and disappointment for the various teams in the Italian top-flight.
