Dybala returns in Roma’s 3-2 comeback win over Parma
dybala returned after a long time away and Roma beat Parma 3-2 after rallying in the final minutes. The win restored a major attacking option for Roma, and it arrived on a day when Gian Piero Gasperini again faced questions about Dybala’s future.
Roma 3-2 Parma
Roma had a great first half, but they also conceded a few too many counterattacks before Parma equalized early in the second half. Gasperini said the team turned the match around in the final minutes and that the key plays were Rensch’s goal and the penalty.
The final score finished at 3-2 after Roma went from 2-1 to 2-3, a swing Gasperini said he has rarely seen. He also said the match had plenty of chances and that the team played well in every way.
Gasperini on Dybala
Gasperini said Dybala was excellent, returning after a long time away and giving Roma quality on the day of the match. He called it a shame that the forward had been out for so long this season, a detail that gives the comeback a sharper edge than the score alone.
The manager also addressed the penalty sequence in a way that matched the chaos of the finish. He said it was the first time he did not see the penalty because he was watching the fans, even though a scoreboard was showing it live.
Derby week for Roma
The future talk stayed in the background, but it did not disappear. Gasperini said, “Paulo Dybala’s comments on his future? I don’t know, there’s still a week before the derby.”
That leaves Roma with a return that matters immediately and a question that remains attached to the next stretch of the season. Dybala’s presence gave the comeback another layer, and the derby now sits a week away with that issue still hanging over him.
