The match ended in a 1-1 draw after Matias Soule's goal for Roma, leaving Lazio with a single point. This result did not benefit Lazio in the Serie A standings, falling three points behind fourth-placed Juventus.

Romagnoli emphasized the need for a strong response following their disappointing performance in Norway, urging the team to push harder for a turnaround. He acknowledged Lazio's missed opportunities in the derby and the unpredictable nature of such matches where decisive incidents determine outcomes.
