Stephan El Shaarawy's two goals couldn't save Roma from a shocking 3-2 home loss to Bologna, intensifying pressure on Ivan Juric.

Roma's crisis deepened with a stunning 3-2 home loss to Bologna, rendering Stephan El Shaarawy's double inconsequential.

Ivan Juric's tenure seemed destined to end, regardless of the outcome.

Key absences plagued Roma: Paulo Dybala, Lorenzo Pellegrini, Mario Hermoso, and Alexis Saelemaekers.

Bologna entered on a two-game Serie A winning streak despite missing Martin Erlic, Oussama El Azzouzi, Michel Aebischer, and Nicolò Cambiaghi.

Juan Miranda unleashed a powerful volley, but Mile Svilar made a comfortable save.

Riccardo Orsolini's dangerous cross eluded two sliding Bologna teammates, while Dan Ndoye collided with the post and was stretchered off.

Bologna capitalized on a corner, with Jhon Lucumi flicking Riccardo Orsolini's set piece to Santiago Castro, who bundled it past Zeki Celik.

Roma nearly equalized through Matias Soulé, whose off-balance effort from eight yards clipped the underside of the bar.

After the restart, Emil Karlsson wasted a six-yard chance.

Stephan El Shaarawy's free kick narrowly missed.

El Shaarawy then equalized with a looping header from Gianluca Mancini's cross, beating Wojciech Skorupski.

Roma's parity lasted mere minutes as Bologna exploited the Giallorossi's aggressive push.

Riccardo Orsolini initiated the counter, receiving Santiago Castro's cross-field pass and finishing with a deflected left-foot shot past Mile Svilar.

Evan Ndicka's corner volley tested Wojciech Skorupski.

Bologna's Thijs Dallinga netted on 72 minutes, but the goal was disallowed due to Ndicka's handball.

Bologna soon regained their two-goal cushion as Emil Karlsson completed a give-and-go with Juan Miranda and beat Svilar.

Stephan El Shaarawy narrowed the deficit with an exceptional right-foot finish.

Oleksandr Dovbyk squandered a chance to equalize.
