Football discussion. Arsenal and Sambi Lokonga defeat Aston Villa and substitute Bright celebrates with Torino – Mouscron still does not win yet | The third round of the European League / League Conference

Arsenal made the opening game of the ninth day in the English Premier League to his liking. Arsenal, with red devil Albert Sambi Lukonga 73 minutes between the lines, defeated Aston Villa 3-1.

The host team thanked Barty (23.), Aubameyang (45. +6) and Smith Rowe (56.) for the goals. Ramsey’s goal (82.) for Aston Villa came too late. For Sambi Lokonga, it was his fifth starting position this season. After nine matches, Arsenal are temporarily ninth with 14 points, and Aston Villa are thirteenth with 10 points.

In Serie A, substitute Dennis Bright helped Torino score the three points against Genoa, without the injured Zenho Vanheusden. The Red Devil came just in time for the home team and was very present. And he watched Pricalo score the winning goal 13 minutes before the end with the help of Merghem Vojvoda (former record). Turin is the tenth in Italy with 11 points. Genoa remains penultimate with only six points.

In the Netherlands, Fortuna Sittard and right-back Mickaël Tirpan tied 1-1 at Willem II. Terban was replaced by Noslin at the end of the first half, who gave the visiting team the lead in the 54th minute. Kollert (59.) held another home point for Villem’s second. Tillbergers are the revelations in the Eredivisie at the moment and they are in third place. Fortuna Sittard is fourteenth.

Mouscron tied 1-1 at home against RWDM on Friday night on day nine of Pro League 1B matches. Mouscron has not been able to win so far this season and is the last with three points, six points behind RWDM, which is penultimate.

New coach Jose John Champ’s men started the game well. In the eighth minute, Tynemont found Lucas Ribeiro Costa, who hit the ball into the lower right corner. Ribeiro himself missed the opportunity to score the second goal five minutes before the end of the first half. Push a cross wide. In the 62nd minute, the visitors managed to score with a header from Abdel Dante after a free kick. This was him. Mouscron left without a win.

Talk about the shock. Roma lost 6-1 – yes, six – one – in the Conference League to FK Bodø/Glimt, the Norwegian league leader. Jose Mourinho was tough on himself and the players of his glorious B team. “I have a very good starting team, but I don’t have a strong core. My mistake in judgment.”

Roma was/is one of the favorites to win the Conference League. Nobody gave FK Bodø / Glimt any chance to force a tie again. Well, the Norwegian league leaders sent Roma home 6-1. In the first half the score was 2-1 “only”. The gypsies seemed to be able to correct a wrong situation.

But things went from bad to worse in the second half. The Romanian defense shivered and shivered – not only from the bitter cold – and conceded four more goals. This is the first time that Mourinho’s team has conceded six goals. To make matters worse, Roma sees FK Bodø/Glimt jump to the top in Group C.

After the match, a sullen Mourinho – for the first time with this look as Roma coach – was his signature. The Portuguese simply didn’t think his glorified B team was good enough. “We lost against a team that had a better level on the field,” he said. “I wanted to give the other players a chance. With the best of intentions.”

“I am responsible because I made the squad,” Mourinho said. The Portuguese believes that the difference between his starting and reserve players is too big. “If I could play with the same team every week, I would. I was expecting the players who have a chance now to do a little better.”

“I’m not surprised by Bodo/Glimt, no. My staff analyzed them with respect and I knew they had a strong team. And us? We have a very good team, but our team is not very good. Today I played with the “wide group” and not with my best team and we were punished for that.”

“Did cold conditions play a role? No, I won’t make excuses. I have to congratulate the opponent. They deserved to win. And am I going to play with my best team in the second leg?” said The Special One.

The return leg is scheduled to take place in Rome on November 4. Roma occupies fourth place in the Italian league with 15 points from 8 matches. Also the names from the beginning eleven that came into effect: Rui Patricio – Reynolds, Ibanez, Cumbula, Calafiori – Perez, Derbo, Villar, Diawara, El Shaarawy – Mayoral.

Finally, there’s also a nice guard on the Norwegian side of the story. With two goals and three assists, 21-year-old Eric Bothem was the hangman for Mourinho and his followers. Bothem, in turn, is a childhood friend of Erling Haaland, with whom he appeared a few years ago in a bizarre video for a rap song he wrote himself.
