In a tightly contested match at the Stadio Olimpico, AS Roma and Juventus ended in a 1-1 draw, bringing an end to Roma's impressive seven-match winning streak in Serie A. The game featured a standout performance from super-sub Eldor Shomurodov, who equalized for Roma shortly after coming on, cancelling out a stunning volley from Manuel Locatelli that had given Juventus the early advantage.

Juventus started the match brightly, dominating possession in the opening minutes. Despite their early pressure, it was Roma who created the first significant opportunity, with Bryan Cristante being denied by a crucial block from Pierre Kalulu. Juventus responded with a close call of their own, as a header from Nico Gonzalez hit the woodwork, showcasing the attacking intent from both sides.

The deadlock was finally broken in the 40th minute when Locatelli struck a powerful volley from the edge of the box, capitalizing on a defensive error by Zeki Celik. This goal marked the first time Roma had conceded since early March, ending a streak of three consecutive clean sheets.

However, Roma's resilience shone through after the halftime break. Coach Igor Tudor made an impactful substitution, bringing on Shomurodov for Mats Hummels, which shifted Roma to a 4-4-2 formation. The move paid off quickly, as Shomurodov scored just four minutes into the second half, pouncing on a rebound after Michele Di Gregorio parried an Evan N’Dicka header.

The match remained fiercely competitive, with both teams creating further chances but unable to find the back of the net again. Roma’s Mile Svilar made key saves to maintain the draw, while Juventus pushed for a late winner but ultimately had to settle for a share of the points.

This draw leaves both teams reflecting on missed opportunities as they continue their respective battles for European qualification, with Roma looking to regain momentum after an impressive run and Juventus aiming to solidify their position in the top tier of Serie A.
