Roma Becomes The First Club To Win UEFA Europa Conference League

 

Jose Mourinho became the first manager ever to lift the UEFA Europa Conference League trophy after his Roma side beat Feyenoord in Wednesday's final.

Feyenoord dominated possession in Tirana but Roma took the lead on 32 minutes with their first shot of the match and held on for a priceless 1-0 win.

Midfielder Nicolo Zaniolo - who had scored a hat-trick in Roma's quarter-final victory over Bodo/Glimt - produced a superb two-touch finish following a long-range pass from Gianluca Mancini.

Feyenoord applied much more pressure in the second half and twice struck the Roma post.

But Roma held on to win their first piece of silverware since the 2008 Coppa Italia.
