"However, it was Roma who struck the decisive blow in the 38th minute, as Matias Soule teed up Pellegrini for a wonderful first-time finish beyond Ivan Provedel. The Lazio goalkeeper came to his side's rescue to deny Devyne Rensch and Angelino before the hosts squandered a glorious opportunity to equalise in the 54th minute, with Boulaye Dia blazing over when clear on goal."
"Lazio's frustration was compounded in the 86th minute when Belahyane was shown a straight red card for a high challenge on Manu Kone. Roma survived stoppage-time scares when Mile Svilar thwarted Valentin Castellanos and Danilo Cataldi struck the woodwork, but an equaliser eluded Lazio, who had Guendouzi sent off after the final whistle for foul and abusive language. 4+11 - Lorenzo #Pellegrini has scored more goals against Lazio (4) than against any other side in Serie A."
"At 67 years and 238 days, Gian Piero Gasperini is the second-oldest coach to win a Rome derby in all competitions, behind only Claudio Ranieri (73 years and 77 days). Roma are now unbeaten in their last five league derbies against Lazio, while they registered their 14th clean sheet of 2025 - the highest tally of any team in the big five European leagues."
Roma defeated Lazio 1-0 at the Stadio Olimpico thanks to a 38th-minute first-time finish from Lorenzo Pellegrini, set up by Matias Soule. Lazio produced early chances through Pedro and Mattia Zaccagni and saw Boulaye Dia miss a clear opportunity in the second half. Reda Belahyane received a straight red in the 86th minute for a high challenge on Manu Kone, and Matteo Guendouzi was sent off after the final whistle for foul and abusive language. Mile Svilar made late saves and Roma recorded another clean sheet, extending derby unbeaten and clean-sheet streaks.
