Rome coach Paulo Fonseca may end his role in Rome after another embarrassing night for the Giallorossi, last night (Tuesday) after he and his trainees were knocked out of the Italian Cup by Spezia. The Romans were defeated last Friday by Lazio 3-0 in the Eternal City derby, Finished in front of the modest team in 2: 2 at the end of 90 minutes and surrendered 4: 2 in overtime.

The more embarrassing story than the loss itself is the fact that Punska made 6 substitutions, one more than the allowable amount, so that in any case Rome would have been relegated to a technical loss even if they had won.

"If there is a problem we have time to discuss it internally," Fonseca told Italian media, causing an uproar after team members feel he is blaming them for the incidents.

 This is not the first time this season that Roma have gone through embarrassing moments following exchanges after sharing Amdo Divara in the opening round and technically losing 3-0 to Verona. 

On the game itself, Fonseca said: "It's a difficult moment, we wanted to get further in the Italian Cup but I can not complain about the attitude of the players. We have to prepare for the next game. We moved to play with two strikers against Lazio, the team did not play well. I do not think the loss is related to a tactical problem. "
