AS Roma Match Day Guide - New and Updated!

167 Upvotes

We only have one rule in this subreddit, match day/ticket threads are NOT allowed. The reason for this is that the subredit is not here to be your personal Q&A, it is here to generate discussion between Roma fans. As a sub, we're tired answering the same question over and over and over and over and over again especially since you can solve your own problems with a quick Google search. To make the process simpler for you, we created a thread (which is stickied at the top of the sub) with some common FAQs. Over time, most of the things became outdated and many people asked for a new version. In reality, Roma already made quite a few FAQ posts themselves but since people seem unable to Goggle, I think its time to create a new and updated version of the old thread but instead of creating FAQs ourselves, we will just copy Roma's FAQs so in the event that it goes down we will still have a copy. While we can't guarantee that this data is 100% correct, it is the closest to correct that you will ever be.

Here goes. (There are also some recommendations about some bars/attractions at the end of this post)

How can I get to the Stadio Olimpico?

The nearest metro stop to the Stadio Olimpico is Ottaviano (Line A - heading towards Battistini from Rome Termini). From here it is around a 30-minute walk to the ground, while the 32 bus from outside the station will take you most of the way.

Be warned, however, as the closer to kick-off it gets the busier the bus becomes (this is also true immediately after full-time)

Plenty of other buses serve the ground in all directions. Alternatively, the No. 2 tram from Flaminio tube station (near Piazza del Popolo) stops at Mancini, from where it is a short walk over the Tevere river to get to the Olimpico.

Can I bring my luggage or suitcase inside the stadium?

Is not allowed to bring your luggage inside the Stadio Olimpico. You can bring with you a small personal bag not exceeding 40 x 20 x 20 cm (examples include handbag, small back pack). We remind you that for security reasons all bags will be checked at the access gates.

Is there a baggage depot inside the stadium?

There is no a baggage depot inside the stadium.

Can I bring my handbag or a small back pack?

Yes you can. You can bring with you a small personal bag not exceeding 40 x 20 x 20 cm (examples include handbag, small backpack).

Do kids have to pay a ticket?

Kids that are under 1 metre/3.28ft height have the right of a free access, otherwise you have to purchase a ticket.

Are umbrellas allowed inside the stadium?

Only small, foldable umbrellas are allowed inside. Larger umbrellas, or umbrellas with obvious points, will be turned away or confiscated.

Can I bring my professional camera?

You can only bring your personal compact camera (must be able to fit in your pocket).

Can I bring a baby buggie or prams?

No, these are not allowed.

Can I do a stadium tour?

We are sorry, the Stadio Olimpico does not have guided tours.

PARKING AT STADIO OLIMPICO

Where is the parking area by the Stadio Olimpico?

Parking is extremely difficult near the stadium. You are advised to park away from the ground and walk up, or to use public transport. Some public parking is available in the vicinity but will be difficult to find on matchdays - blue line spaces must be paid for, while white lines indicate you can park for free.

Article 2

https://www.asroma.com/en/news/2017/3/tickets-q-a-the-frequently-asked-questions-about-watching-a-roma-home-game

Interested to coming to Rome to watch an AS Roma home game, but not really sure where to start? Here are answers to a few common questions that might help you out...

There are few more iconic and exciting venues around the world to watch a game of football than at Rome’s Stadio Olimpico.

A stadium of significant history – having hosted both the 1990 World Cup final, four European finals (including the 2009 Champions League) and, of course, the 1960 Olympic Games – the 70,000-seater stadium is one of the most historic in Europe.

Thousands of fans every year make the trip to the Eternal Capital to watch the Giallorossi in action – here we answer a few common questions supporters have as they plan a trip.

Can overseas visitors buy match tickets?

Yes, fans from around the world are able to buy tickets for Roma matches – both in advance and, barring some rare exceptions, on the day of matches.

For European games and cup ties, there will occasionally be a pre-sale that is only open to fans who own a season ticket, but all games reach general sale in the week(s) prior to kick-off.

When do tickets for games go on sale?

Tickets generally go on sale for home matches between three and four weeks before the game, although this can vary depending on the significance of the fixture and the part of the season (ticket information for games at the very start and end of the campaign are often announced in a batch, while knockout cup ties can be finalised fewer than two weeks in advance).

How much do tickets generally cost?

Again, the price of tickets varies based on specific details about the match – including the competition it is in and the opponent being faced. Generally, however, tickets in the two ‘Curva’ (Sud and Nord, behind either goal) are priced from €25-€35 while the prices for tickets in either ‘Tribuna’ (sideline stands Monte Mario and Tevere) range from €45-€100.

Additionally, tickets that include hospitality options are available.

Where can I buy tickets?

Tickets can be bought online, over the phone and at the various sales points around the city. Look below for more specific information:

I’m buying from overseas…

The best option is asroma.com. Fans can select tickets based on price and area of the ground.

Alternatively, call or email the AS Roma box office (enquiries can be dealt with in English):

Email: abbonamenti@asroma.it Phone: +39 (0)68 938 6000

I’m in Rome now and I want to get a ticket…

Along with the above options, match tickets can be bought at the many AS Roma Stores around the city.

Ticket point...

Via Appia Nuova 130, Tel. +39 0677590664 - 10.00/18.00.

Tickets are also usually still available on matchday from the Foro Italico ticket office near the ground. However it is best to check in advance, or arrive at the ground a few hours before kick-off to ensure you can purchase a ticket.

What documentation do I need to have?

To purchases tickets you will need to have some form of I.D. on you - either to enter you details when completing an online or telephone purchase, or to show when buying in person at one of the sales points around the city.

This is also the case if you are buying for friends or family at the same time - you will need to present their I.D. to complete the purchase.

You should also make sure to bring I.D. with you to the ground, as these are often checked against the information registered to each ticket before entrance is permitted.

Click here for further information on the stadium rules and regulations; https://www.asroma.com/en/tickets/stadium-rules

Which area of the ground is it best to watch from?

That depends purely on the experience you want to have. Traditionally the Curva Sud is the area where most season ticket holders and regular supporters opt to sit, which means both these tickets often offer the most passionate match-day experience and can sell out.

The Curva Nord, in contrast, often has significant matchday availability as the traditional Lazio end of the ground.

Tribuna Tevere and Monte Mario both offer great sideline views of the match, with the Tevere containing dedicated areas for families and those with disabilities. Monte Mario, on the same side as the two dugouts, contains the various hospitality options available on matchday.

Options for families and disabled supporters are available in certain parts of the ground.

How do I get to the ground on matchday?

This largely depends on where you are coming from! The nearest metro stop to the Stadio Olimpico is Ottaviano (Line A - heading towards Battistini from Rome Termini). From here it is around a 30-minute walk to the ground, while the 32 bus from outside the station will take you most of the way.

Be warned, however, as the closer to kick-off it gets the busier the bus becomes.

Plenty of other buses serve the ground in all directions. Alternatively, the No. 2 tram from Flaminio tube station (near Piazza del Popolo) stops at Mancini, from where it is a short walk over the Tiber to get to the Olimpico.

Others

(From original thread)

While you in Rome, you might have some downtime before the game, but fear not, that’s plenty of things to do in Rome. Besides the usual Colosseo/Vatican tours, here’s a list of recommendations for you to do.

  • Kick back with a pint. Rome offers a lot of great bars, so if you’re into sports and a well served stout I recommend you go check out Scholar’s Lounge http://www.scholarsloungerome.com . It’s an irish pub just less that a minute from Piazza Venezia. And even though their homepage may be outdated, they show every sport that you can imagine on one of their 15+ screens, with karaoke and live music every week. As a side note, this is the go to bar, for Pallotta and Zanzi everytime they in rome and you might meet them here! (I even met some Roma players there before!)

If you're into the more casual drinking http://finneganpub.com may be a better place. Roma's Testaccio area is also known for it's clubs if that's more your style.

  • Eating! Obviously Rome has some very very good places for consumption. As a guideline, avoid the openly places with lot of tourists and waiters nearly pulling your shirt to get you in. These are in general very generic and just in if for a quick buck. I’d say take a stroll around town and find the little restaurants on the small side streets, and you’ll be in for a treat. If it’s not you cup of tea to walk around too much, I recommend you go to Campo de Fiori then. http://www.bedandbreakfastroma.com/it/Forno_Campo_de_Fiori/ - It’s a lively market during the day, and restaurants and bars doing the evening. To me this place just got the right mix of tourists and natively Italy to make it an exciting experience.

  • Walking! Rome is a city full of hidden gems. Just next of Circo Massimo, you'll find Aventino (Aventine Hill) which is one of the ancient hills Rome was build on, according to legends. Asides from being just a historical place, there's a little gate near the top of the hill. I won't spoil it but you should probably take a look through the keyhole. If that is not enough for you, the nearby church has a little garden where people tend to lay in the grass and just chill. You also happen to get an excellent view of Roma from here too. Rome also has some of the most beautiful gardens. Both Villa Ada and Villa Borghese are large and very beautiful.

  • The beach! Depending on whenever you arrive, you might want to go to the beach to relieve yourself from the hot weather. You can take the metro to Pyramide and from there a Train to Ostia which will bring you to a lovely beach.

A long overdue post on Malen's presumed overperformance: why the "Donyell Malen is a fluke" narrative is factually wrong.

50 Upvotes

A common narrative of the past year is that Malen is some kind of blessing from above that came out of nowhere and is living a hype-fueled period in Rome where he is suddenly keeping up the pace of Cristiano Ronaldo in terms of goals per minute, despite a career as a discarded Premier League benchwarmer.

This is a factually and wildly wrong narrative once you actually look at the numbers (check the math yourself, I just used Transfermarkt, nothing fancy).

Malen is keeping a crazy 78.7 min/G+A (97.6 min/G) at Roma. This is awesome and actually record-breaking, sure, but let's go look at his other teams.

PSV: 92 min / G+A and a goal every 128 min.

Dortmund: 132.9 min / G+A and 201 min / G.

Aston Villa: 124 min for goals and assists, 149 min for goals only.

So what that tells you is that in his worst possible statistic—that is, goals at Dortmund—he would score on average every two matches. But even there, when you account for assists, he would have a goal contribution every game and a half (an average of 2 every 3 games).

These are the worst stats of his career and even these are much better than those of the majority of strikers out there.

Once you take his entire career into account, he scores once every 151 minutes and has goal contributions every 109 minutes (an insane, almost one contribution per game statistic, and this is over 24,814 minutes, which is almost 276 matches' worth of minutes).

To give you some random reference, Totti min/g+a over almost 800 matches was 116.

For more reference, let's use another great feature of Transfermarkt and look at the most valuable forwards born in 1999 in the world, which fits Malen's exact profile.

The most valuable player on the list is Alexander Isak, who is worth 90M currently.

Anyone who knows anything about football knows Isak and would laugh at me if I ever thought to compare him to Malen, right? Malen's market value last winter was 25 million, while Isak's was 120M; now they are 90M and 55M.

Once you crunch the numbers, you see that Isak has overall career statistics of 154 minutes per goal and 125 minutes per contribution over a similar amount of total minutes played.

Somehow, however, he is currently worth 35 million more than peak-career Malen, and 6 months ago he was worth 5 times his value.

The real answer is that it makes absolutely no sense for Malen to have ever been undervalued as much as he was.

A mismanagement of such proportions should blow your mind, especially when you consider that some of those numbers were with him playing as a winger, not even a striker.

When you look at the actual numbers, he is probably the craziest steal in the history of Roma, one of the wildest losses of value and lack of vision of the premier league, and some people at Aston Villa should definitely lose their jobs.

Most importantly, this post is necessary to dispel the idea that we at Roma are all living a fever dream and suddenly the spell will go away and Malen will go back to being a mediocre, benchable player.

It's not gonna happen, because he was never mediocre. He is predestined because he was always predestined.

So next time someone says anything about playing with a couldn't-make-it-in-the-premier striker, point them at this post please, I am so tired of smokescreens.

Daje Bobby, like your mama says, we haven't even seen nothing yet.

Napoli 3-3 Roma: Soulé and a Balerdi brace snatch a point at the Maradona

Post image
88 Upvotes

What a game. Roma came away from the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona with a 3-3 draw.

Goals:

Napoli: Anguissa (28'), McTominay (48', 83')

Roma: Soulé (69'), Balerdi (74', 89')

We were 1-0 down at the break, then 2-0 after McTominay's second-half opener, and still found a way back. Balerdi's 89th-minute equalizer was pure drama after McTominay had put them back in front on 83'.

A point at Napoli is never a bad result, but this one felt like it could've been more. Thoughts?

Man of the match?

Happy with the point, or two points dropped?

What do we need to fix defensively?

Forza Roma

Matias Soule, what a hit! He scored the goal to get Roma back in the game in a thrilling 3-3 draw.
His shot came in at an average of 106 km/h. We estimate the peak speed being 122 km/h.
