AS Roma collapsed to a 3-0 defeat at home to manager Jose Mourinho’s former club Inter Milan on Saturday as the champions climbed to second in Serie A and inflicted a fourth defeat in six league games on the capital club.
Mourinho led Inter to an unprecedented treble in 2010 but his first meeting with them as an opposing coach ended with the second Serie A home defeat of his career in his 46th match – the other coming against AC Milan in October.
The Portuguese pointed to his side’s absentees, who included the suspended Tammy Abraham and Rick Karsdorp and injured captain Lorenzo Pellegrini, after a comprehensive defeat.

‘Inter are stronger than us in normal circumstances, in these circumstances they are much stronger,’ Mourinho told DAZN.
‘Today between injuries and suspensions it was a very limited selection.’
The Roma manager added: ‘Our attacking potential was practically zero, we had three chances and didn’t score.
