After his team’s 0-1 loss to Lazio, Roma coach Jose Mourinho voiced his regret for Argentina international player Paulo Dybala’s absence, but he also stated his optimism that the player would return to play in games before the World Cup events began.
In order to help the Lazio team, coached by Maurizio Sari, secure a resounding victory over their archrival on Sunday and move Lazio up to third place in the Italian League, Philip Anderson took advantage of Roger Ebans.
While Lazio missed Shero Imobili and Sergey Milinkovic Savic’s combined efforts at the Olympic Stadium, Roma was only able to attempt two shots on goal due to Dybala’s absence. Dybala is the team’s leading scorer with five league goals this season.
At the post-game press conference, Mourinho stated, “We talked about Milinkovic Savic and Imobili, we did not talk about Dybala.”
“I believe it to be more significant because it is the one who makes the crucial passes to score goals. We have issues when specific players are absent “Added he.
Mourinho believed that Dybala would make a comeback in the upcoming Turin match slated for next Sunday, which will be in support of the Argentine national team, before his departure to Qatar. Dybala has been out of action in Rome since last October due to a knee injury.
“Since Dybala is so eager to attend the World Cup, it is tough to refuse. If his injury improves, we want to see him back in action against Turin the following Sunday.”
Mourinho had previously stated that he anticipated Dybala to miss all of 2022’s games.
