Roma - Latest News Update, Information, Photos & Videos on Roma at Lokmat Times

Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane put Gareth Bale into the line-up for the first time in the team's last four pre-season matches at the Stadio Olimpico on Sunday night.This was the Spanish team's seventh and last pre-season match before the start of the La Liga season next weekend when Madrid goes up against Celta Vigo, but Bale had played in only the first three outings, always coming off the bench, reports Efe news.Bale was back in the Madrid line-up against Roma, although he only played for the last 30 minutes or so, after all the regular-time goals had been scored and ultimately had little impact on the course of play. He did, however, hit his penalty shootout attempt.Madrid's Marcelo drove a shot-on-goal home in the 16th minute with a great right-footer after a very nice drive, but Diego Perotti evened things up in the 34th minute, tapping one into the net following a premier effort by Nicolo Zaniolo.Casemiro put Madrid back in the driver's seat just five minutes later, heading the ball past the Italian goaltender after an assist from Marcelo, but Edin Dzeko brought things level once again just a minute later, capturing Cengiz Under's fine pass and knocking it into the top right corner of the net.In the penalty shootout, Bale scored but Marcelo missed the very last of the 10 shots, his effort hitting the crossbar thus giving Roma the victory.The Ital kick off their Serie A season on August 25 going up against Genoa at home.( With inputs from IANS )
