Claudio Ranieri rediscovered the bright stars of Roma

The Friedkin family, the owners of Roma, have long dreamed of seeing their team in the Champions League. In 2021, the famous specialist Jose Mourinho was appointed head coach of the club for this purpose. However, despite three years of efforts, the Portuguese coach could not cope with this task, explaining the situation by saying that "I am not the wizard Harry Potter."

73-year-old Claudio Ranieri, who took over at the beginning of this season to overcome the crisis at Roma, has proven that this task can be accomplished without big transfers or a magic wand.

In particular, the rediscovery of two players - Matias Sule and Eldor Shomurodov - has surprised many. These two players were considered unnecessary by the club's management and previous coaches.

Despite the injury to the main star Paulo Dybala and the decline in the level of the scorer Artem Dovbik, it is the bright performances of Shomurodov and Sule that have brought the Romans important points.

While Sule was initially unable to get into the starting lineup after joining the team in the summer, Ranieri saw his potential and expressed confidence in him. The Argentine player has scored 3 goals in the last 9 games and provided 2 assists for Shomurodov.

Shomurodov, on the other hand, has become the team's main striker, despite thinking about leaving twice during the season, thanks to the trust of the Italian coach. Ranieri also worked with Eldor at Cagliari last year and highly appreciated his abilities. This season, the Uzbek player has made a significant contribution to the team with 7 goals and 3 assists.

Experts say that the Shomurodov and Sule tandem has brought the team important points with 4 goals and 1 assist in the last 6 matches. In particular, the results in the matches with Empoli, Lazio, Juventus and Verona were recorded on their account.

Now, Roma is facing an important match against Inter, which is fighting for the championship. Last season, Shomurodov hurt the Milanese with a goal as part of Cagliari and deprived them of victory. This time, Ranieri is also counting on Sule and Shomurodov in the match against Inter.

The match between Inter and Roma will start on April 27 at 18:00 Tashkent time. Read 'Zamin' on Telegram!
