Dragoni’s Father Confronts Roma Coach After Derby Win, Demanding More Playing Time

The outburst followed the teenager’s managed return from ankle surgery during a loan spell from Barcelona.

Overview

  • The confrontation occurred near the Tre Fontane stands as Luca Rossettini prepared for post-match media, with Giulia Dragoni’s father shouting profanities and asking why his daughter was not used more.
  • Witnesses included fans and reporters, and the exchange lasted a couple of minutes before Rossettini proceeded to give interviews without responding.
  • Dragoni, 19, is in her second season on loan from Barcelona and returned in early October after ankle surgery in May.
  • Since her return she has appeared in nine matches across league and Champions League, starting three times and totaling roughly 383 minutes.
  • Rossettini had publicly praised her technical ability earlier in the week, and as of the latest reports the club has not issued any formal comment on the incident.
