AS Roma Crush Brighton 4-0 in Europa League

De Zerbi's Return to Italy Ends in Disaster

Paragraph 1

Brighton & Hove Albion's Europa League hopes suffered a major setback as they were comprehensively defeated 4-0 by AS Roma in Rome. The match, which took place on March 7, 2024, saw Roberto De Zerbi's return to Italy end in a humiliating fashion.

Roma, inspired by Paulo Dybala's stunning goal in the first half, dominated the match throughout. The Serie A giants added three more goals after the break, with Romelu Lukaku scoring a brace and Tammy Abraham also finding the net.

Brighton, who had impressed in the competition earlier in the season, were unable to cope with Roma's attacking prowess. The defeat leaves De Zerbi's side facing an uphill battle to qualify for the next round of the Europa League.
