Italian football Serie A has a high-profile match in recent days, with Bologna beating Roma 2-0 at home, and amazingly, the previously underdogs have been the dark horse of the season as they finish in the top four of the league.
Bologna have a strong home record this season, winning five, drawing one and losing one of their previous seven matches, with their only defeat coming against AC Milan, where they have managed a point even against Napoli.
In contrast, Roma struggled with the absence of key players, with Dybala missing out on injury and Romelu Lukaku being unavailable due to suspension, which overshadowed the Roma team.
Bologna played an all-out attacking game and managed to hold off Roma's multiple attacks, with Moreau scoring a goal to give his team the lead in the first half.
Soon after the second half, Roma suffered another blow, Christensen accidentally scored an own goal, leaving Mourinho on the sidelines helpless.
Although Roma still had chances to tie, in the end they lost two goals, which made it difficult for them to turn things around.
As a result, Roma must give up their dream of fighting for a top-four finish, and they currently fall to seventh place in the league, behind Fiorentina, Napoli and Bologna.
Unfortunately, Roma will face strong opponents including Napoli and Juventus in their upcoming fixtures, which will be a huge challenge for them.
At the same time, with Dybala still recovering from injury, Roma are missing a key player up front, making it almost impossible to beat these two strong teams.
Although Mourinho has expressed a desire to stay in his role, Roma's lack of funds has left them with the players and high wages he needs, making their prospects somewhat bleak.
However, both Roma and Jose Mourinho are dreaming of returning to the Champions League and will be hoping to make a breakthrough in the future.
