The attacker shares on Instagram the image of his face after the scarp in the face taken in the episode that led the referee Fabbri to grant the penalty then transformed by Abraham in the 99th minute
A black, swollen and closed eye, blood over the nose. This is the face of Nicol Zaniolo after the match won by Roma 1-0 against Spezia. He got a kick in the face, but that sprawling intervention by Maggiore brought his team the penalty of victory, then transformed by Abraham in the 99th minute.
The important thing was the three points, he writes on Instagram the attacker, in the post in which he shares the photo with the swollen face after the escarpment. It took a big hit, the comment of teammate Cristante. Here, the thing in some ways incredible that Zaniolo also received a warning, in the excited moments before the referee Fabbri went to review the disputed episode of the penalty on the sideline monitor.
Contested, we said, especially by the Spezia coach: I saw one of my players touching the ball and then the opponent. There are interpretations that are not clear – Thiago Motta’s words on the episode -. If you are not sure you leave it in doubt. Now we want an apology. It makes me laugh not to cry. Controversy aside, a yellow and a few bruises later, Zaniolo can be happy for the victory that allows Roma to return to look at the table with confidence.
