What a game so far. Torino took a lead and looked like it will be one sided game, few nice runs from Cerci and Imobile, but soon after Bologna picked up their game with Cristaldo scoring the double to overturn the result; Bologna's first goal came after horrific blunder from Darmian. Now defensive blunder on another side and Torino hit the post. Some entertaining stuff.

Rome Derby was pretty grim.

Lazio knew they couldn't really take Roma on in midfield, so just focused on sitting deep and playing long balls up to Klose.

Worked fine defensively, but the balls up to Klose weren't good enough to give him a chance against someone as powerful as Benatia.

Roma had to work very hard to get anywhere and their final ball/decision was too poor for them to take advantage when they did manage to engineer any decent situations.

Certainly in terms of decent teams facing each other.

You expect some horribly attritional games between sides who don't have anything much by way of technical ability, but you expect more from teams like Lazio and Roma who are meant to be (at least) a level or two better than that.
