Good morning !!!!! 

It's 6:00 a.m. and I am ready for the match!  Wow, grab a cup of coffee to be awake.  We are in for a ride.   Referee Damato whistles the beginning of the match.

Here is the official starting eleven formation for AS ROMA by Coach Luciano Spalletti:

AS ROMA: 
Doni; Motta, Mexes, Panucci, Tonetto; De Rossi, Pizarro; Brighi, Perrotta, Menez; Totti


Here is the official starting eleven formation for BOLOGNA by Coach Sinisa Mihajlovic:

BOLOGNA:  Doni; Motta, Mexes, Panucci, Tonetto; De Rossi, Pizarro; Brighi, Perrotta, Menez; Totti

 
     

Wow, hello, hello... in the 10th minuteReferee Damato grants a penalty to the Roman gladiators!  Gee, what a luck for Bologna because Luigi Lavecchia concedes the penalty for a foul on Max Tonetto inside the penalty area.

You bet... taking the penalty kick is Captain Francesco Totti.  Oh my gosh, Totti better not miss the penalty because it will be a blow.  Come on Totti... let's concentrate... pray....ready, set, gooooo.. yes, yes, yes, GOAAALLLLLLLLL guys, Totti converted the penalty even if Bologna goalkeeper Antonioli went to the right direction but the right footed shot from Totti blasted the bottom left corner! 
AS ROMA 1 - 0 BOLOGNA

It's party time at the Olimpicoooooooooo



Brazo Totti!!!!!!   Guys, Totti as the brave Roman Gladiator thanking his fans in the Olimpico after converting the penalty.

Ooops.. wow, really, yes?  A few minutes of joy for Roma!   In the 26th minute, an assist by Sergio Volpi following a corner kick sends the ball for Massimo Marazzina being at the right place to head the ball blasting AS Roma goalkeeper Doni from the center of the box directly to the top left corner!!!!!
AS ROMA 1 - 1 BOLOGNA

Wow, guys, now it is  a battle and the Roman gladiators better shape up....

Roma cannot afford a draw.  It's now or never for Roma to win this match and climb the ladder.

In the 40th minute, a clear and present danger from Bologna!!!  An assist by Davide Bombardini to Marazzina and you bet he is looking to score!   Guys, Marazzinia with a left footed shot almost blasting Roma goalkeeper Doni in the bottom left corner and he saves!!!!!  Wow, guys, I am glad to see Doni fresh even after the long trip of his return from San Paulo after the 2010 World Cup Qualifier matches with Brazil.   Bravo Doni.

Oh come on!!!!  In the 52nd minute, a clear chance for Roma to take the lead!!!   Matteo Brighi sending an assist to Daniele De Rossi and wow,,, with a right footed shot scaring Bologna goalkeeper Antonio though he saves in the bottom right corner!!!!! Oh my gosh!!  I love watching De Rossi battling!!!

So far, Bologna forward Marco Di Vaio has not been able to score.  This is the problem with Bologna that they rely too much on one man. True, Di Vaio is awesome and top scorer of the table, but Bologna must have more ideas and profit from Di Vaio. It's unconceivable Bologna is risking the relegation having the top scorer! 

wow, wow, wow... say what?  Oh my gosh, what's happening to Bologna!!!!  In the 57th minute, Bologna Marcello Castellini commits a foul on Roma forward Julio Baptista in the penalty area!   Guys, Referee Damato does not hesitate and gives a penalty to Roma while giving a yellow card to Castellini!!! 

Oh, my, my, my... taking the penalty spot is again Captain Francesco Totti....  I am so nervous with this match...  Ok, cool down...  Totti heads to the penalty spot, observes, get ready, set... and I open  my eyesssss to see the goooallllllll in the top right conrer after a right footed shot!!!!  PO PO PO PO PO, Wow, guys, imagine Totti was not supposed to play because he is barely recovering from injury and he already converting two penalties!!!!!!!!




Awesome guys, look at the gesture of satisfaction, joy from Roma midfielder Simone Perrotta.  I love it!!!!   The Roman gladiators are rocking now and Totti having a blast!!!!
