Romelu Lukaku has left Chelsea to join AS Roma on loan. The appearance of the Belgian star in the Italian capital excited Roma fans.
He quickly made his debut for the new club when he welcomed AC Milan at home. Jose Mourinho put Lukaku on the bench and used the schoolboy in the 70th minute. The former Manchester United striker came on to replace Stephan El Shaarawy.
Lukaku did not help Roma win at least 1 point against Milan when the capital team suffered a 1-2 defeat. However, the player born in 1993 still left his mark in a situation of running through the wind and then he received a bitter ending.
Lukaku ran fiercely.
He cut down Okafor.
Specifically, that ball took place in the 85th minute. Milan’s rookie Noah Okafor received and dribbled the ball on the left wing in a favorable position. Lukaku saw this and immediately opened full speed, running aggressively from the opponent’s field to approach Okafor. Lukaku’s fierceness is shown through the moment he tackles the ball and causes the opponent to fall to the field.
The referee issued a yellow card to warn Lukaku for his fierce play, which made Roma’s number 90 hold his head and complain. That ball more or less showed the Belgian star’s desire to play football after he left Chelsea.
Under Mourinho’s direction, Lukaku is expected to shine at Roma.
