Antonio Rüdiger was on the winning side, as his second-placed AS Roma side beat third-placed AC Milan 1-0 on matchday 16 of Serie A. Rüdiger put in a solid performance and was a key part of Roma’s attacks going forward from right-back.
Radja Nainggolan scored the goal of the evening for the home side. After a long header forward from Konstantinos Manolas, the Belgian forward controlled the ball well before letting fly from 25 yards out and finding the net (60’). Before that moment, Roma keeper Wojciech Szczesny saved a 27th minute penalty from M’Baye Niang.
The result took AS Roma within four points of league leaders Juventus, who won 3-1 win in the Turin derby with Sami Khedira in the side. The two sides at the top of Serie A will face off against each other this Saturday.
