Soule fires Roma to victory against promoted Pisa
Roma made it two wins from two Serie A matches under Gian Piero Gasperini as Matias Soule struck the only goal against newly-promoted Pisa.
The Giallorossi's first campaign under Gasperini began with a 1-0 win over Bologna last week, and they edged past Pisa by the same scoreline at Arena Garibaldi.
Soule's goal came in the 55th minute, as he swept into the bottom-left corner from just inside the area after Evan Ferguson brilliantly held up Paulo Dybala's incisive pass.
Playing its first home Serie A match since 1984, Pisa saw its best chance come in the eighth minute, as Mile Svilar barely managed to scramble Henrik Meister's header away from the line.
Meister also saw an angled effort shave the outside of the post, while Roma struggled for clear-cut chances until Soule made the breakthrough.
Soule thought he had a second in the 61st minute, but he was deemed to have handled when tucking home on the rebound, while Manu Kone wasted a good opening late on.
Roma sits in third spot on the table with Napoli and Cremonese above it after they also maintained perfect records this weekend.
