Ante Šimundza put fear in the bones of the famous Portuguese, but Jose Mourinho had the sweetest laugh in the end
The Europa League regular season is over and Ante Šimundza has not achieved the goal he had in his grasp. Ludogorets could have clinched promotion in the penultimate round, but lost at home to Betisom. The last round was decided by a match between Romo and Ludogorets, although the showdown in Rome started out as a dream for Shimunjo, but it was Jose Mourinho in the end, the one who laughed the sweetest.
Win the first half, then go down in a deluge
Ludogorets took the lead at the Olimpico in 42. Rick scored in the first minute. The Bulgarians won the first half and went into the second half full of confidence, but the Romans managed to turn it around. Lorenzo Pellegrini scored two goals, both from eleven metres, and Nicolo Zaniolo, who had earlier converted both 11th minute penalties, scored in the 85th minute. In the last minute, Roma finally qualify for the Europa League knockout rounds and Ludogorets for the Conference League.
Ludogorets, whose goal in Rome was overturned by VAR for 2:2 – a rather controversial decision, no doubt – won twice and lost three times in the six regular season matches. They had six points more than the last-placed team (HJK Helsinki), but three less than second-placed Roma and nine less than the group winner, Betis Sevilla.
