Claudio Ranieri led Roma to an unbeaten run of 17 consecutive Serie A matches. |
If Serie A had a standings based on Ranieri's return to Roma in mid-November, they would be top of the table with an impressive record. Roma have not lost a Serie A game since losing to Como in the first leg in mid-December.
A 1-0 win over Verona in Serie A round 33 last weekend helped Roma stay close to the top 4 with only 3 points less. With this impressive performance, Roma not only consolidated their position in the race for a Champions League ticket but also reminded fans of the image of "Welder" Ranieri, who led Leicester City to the Premier League title in 2016.
Roma's unbeaten run began with a thumping 5-0 win over Parma on 22 December last year. They then held AC Milan to a tense 1-1 draw, before beating arch-rivals Lazio 2-0 in the capital derby.
Roma continued their consistency with a 2-2 draw against Bologna and a 3-1 win over Genoa. Close wins over Udinese (2-1), Venezia (1-0), Parma (1-0), Monza (4-0), Como (2-1), Empoli (1-0), Cagliari (1-0) and Lecce (1-0) showed Roma's ability to control games and take chances under Ranieri.
Roma have not lost a single match in Serie A in the past 4 months. Even when facing strong opponents, Roma still showed their mettle. They drew 1-1 with Napoli, drew 1-1 with Juventus and shared points with Lazio in the second leg of the derby (1-1).
Most recently, Roma beat Hellas Verona 1-0, extending their unbeaten run to 17 games. This includes 12 wins and 5 draws, helping Roma compete on equal terms with leading teams such as Inter Milan and Napoli.
This unbeaten streak proves Ranieri's coaching ability and revives the faith of Roma fans. |
Roma's revival under Ranieri has come from a pragmatic but effective style of play, combining a solid defence with sharp counter-attacks.
In addition, the ability to manage the dressing room of "The Welder" is also a bright spot. Ranieri, at the age of 73, continues to prove his talent in building a united and unbeatable team.
Marca commented that if coach Claudio Ranieri had taken charge of Roma earlier this season, the Italian capital team could have even competed for the championship.
When Ranieri took over at the end of last year, the team was teetering on the brink of relegation. Many Roma fans began to talk about the possibility of the "Welder" continuing to lead the team next season. However, the 73-year-old strategist was realistic: "Another year with me would be a waste of Roma's future."
The 2016 Premier League champion knows that even if he is capable of making Roma better next season, age will be a major obstacle. Ranieri will turn 74 later this year and at that age, European football's top flight has never seen a manager still working.
