Dive into Bwin’s post-match review of Cremonese 1-3 Roma in the Serie A on Sunday, 23 November 2025, with stats, key moments and our take on the match.
Roma took an early lead in this Serie A encounter at the Stadio Giovanni Zini, with M. Soule finding the net in the 17' assisted by M. Kone, setting the tone for a dominant performance from the visitors. Despite Cremonese's efforts to respond, including a yellow card for Martín Payero in the 32' and a cancelled penalty for Tommaso Barbieri in the 45+4', the first half ended with Roma ahead, following a yellow card for Jan Ziółkowski in the 45'. The Giallorossi maintained possession parity but looked more threatening, with substitutions at the break seeing N. El Aynaoui replace J. Ziolkowski in the 46'.
The second half saw Roma extend their advantage as E. Ferguson scored in the 64' assisted by N. El Aynaoui, shortly after Cremonese made double changes in the 57' with G. Pezzella replacing R. Floriani and F. Vazquez coming on for M. Payero. Wesley Franca added a third for Roma in the 69' assisted by S. El Shaarawy, following impactful substitutions like E. Ferguson for T. Baldanzi in the 59' and S. El Shaarawy for L. Pellegrini in the 60'. Cremonese pulled one back late through F. Folino in the 90' assisted by F. Vazquez, but it was mere consolation amid further changes, including A. Grassi for J. Vandeputte in the 70' and double swaps in the 80' with F. Folino replacing M. Bianchetti and A. Sanabria for F. Bonazzoli, while Roma saw K. Tsimikas replace Wesley Franca in the 80' and N. Pisilli for M. Soule in the 85', securing a 3-1 victory despite yellow cards for Warren Bondo in the 82' and Neil El Aynaoui in the 84'.
Possession was evenly split at 50% for both Cremonese and Roma, indicating a balanced battle for control, but Roma made better use of their share with three assists compared to Cremonese's one, which directly contributed to their three goals and highlighted their superior attacking efficiency for bettors eyeing goalscorer markets. Cremonese edged successful dribbles at 50 against Roma's 33, suggesting more individual flair in breaking lines, yet this didn't translate to corners where Roma led 5-3, allowing them more set-piece opportunities that could have influenced in-play betting on attacking metrics. Both sides received two yellow cards each with no reds, keeping the match flowing without major disruptions, while five substitutions apiece—such as Cremonese's timely introductions of F. Vazquez for M. Payero and G. Pezzella for R. Floriani at 57'—aimed to shift momentum, though Roma's changes like E. Ferguson for T. Baldanzi at 59' proved more decisive in extending their lead.
No penalties were taken or injury-time goals scored, underscoring a game decided in regular time, but the assist tally underlines Roma's clinical edge, offering insights for future bets on teams with strong midfield creativity.
The match's opening goal came in the 17' when M. Soule slotted home for Roma, assisted by M. Kone, establishing early dominance that Cremonese struggled to overturn despite a spirited response, including a yellow card to Martín Payero in the 32' that heightened tensions. A pivotal turning point arrived just before the break with a penalty for Tommaso Barbieri cancelled in the 45+4', denying Cremonese a chance to equalise and allowing Roma to carry their lead into the second half after Jan Ziółkowski's yellow in the 45'. Substitutions played a key role, with Roma's introduction of E. Ferguson for T. Baldanzi at 59' paying dividends as he scored in the 64' assisted by N. El Aynaoui, who had come on for J. Ziolkowski at 46', before Wesley Franca extended the lead in the 69' assisted by S. El Shaarawy, who replaced L. Pellegrini at 60'.
Cremonese's late substitutions, such as F. Folino for M. Bianchetti at 80', led to their consolation goal by Folino in the 90' assisted by F. Vazquez, but yellow cards to Warren Bondo in the 82' and Neil El Aynaoui in the 84' reflected the frustrations of a game that slipped away from the hosts.
Cremonese lined up in a 3-5-2 formation, relying on a solid defensive trio to contain Roma's attacks while wing-backs provided width, with standout partnerships in midfield where players like Martín Payero drove forward before his substitution, complementing the forward duo's efforts to exploit spaces.
Roma deployed a 3-4-2-1 setup, emphasising fluid attacking midfield roles behind the striker, with key partnerships between the wing-backs and creators like M. Soule, who shone early, allowing for quick transitions that overwhelmed Cremonese's defence.
With no specific Man of the Match designated in the available context, E. Ferguson earns the nod for his impactful substitute appearance, scoring a crucial goal in the 64' after coming on at 59' and shifting the game's momentum decisively in Roma's favour with his sharp finishing and positioning.

Sitting in 11th place with 14 points, Cremonese are enduring a tough run of three consecutive losses, including this 1-3 home defeat to Roma, which has left them vulnerable in mid-table and in need of a turnaround to avoid slipping further; their next challenge comes against fifth-placed Bologna, who boast 24 points, on 1 December at 19:45, offering a chance to regain momentum but demanding defensive improvements to upset the odds.
Roma top the Serie A standings with 27 points after back-to-back wins, including this convincing 3-1 triumph over Cremonese, though a recent away loss to Milan shows areas for caution; they face FC Midtjylland next on 27 November at 17:45 in what could be a tricky European outing, providing an opportunity to extend their strong form across competitions and attract bets on their continued success.
