La Magicast – The AS Roma podcast

Episode 344 of La Magicast is a special episode celebrating one of the most remarkable achievements of the season: Roma Women claimed the Serie A title for the third time in the last four years and, to cap it off, lifted the Coppa Italia as well, completing a historic double. Tim is joined by special guest Leonardo Ferrante Quiley from Il Romanista, one of the top authorities on Roma Women, for a deep and honest look back at a season that surprised everyone.
Together they break down the summer of total reconstruction following the departures of coach Spugna and several key players, the bold but ultimately brilliant appointment of Rossettini despite his lack of women's football experience, Manuela Giuliano's exceptional season as captain and locker room leader, the breakout performances of goalkeeper Baldi and centre-back Ola Dipo, and what the upcoming summer transfer window could bring — with confirmed exits and potential arrivals like Piemonte and Oliveiro from Lazio on the radar. Essential listening for anyone who wants to understand how Roma built their new winning cycle.
Forza Roma, always.

Scot and Joey, recording 24 hours after Roma's 2–0 win at Hellas Verona sealed a third-place finish and a return to the Champions League for the first time in seven years. Svilar with seven saves. Mallen with a penalty rebound. El Shaarawy's final act in a Roma shirt. And Milan and Juventus, who only needed a draw, left with nothing.
The long wait is over. Roma are back at the top table.
Forza Roma, always.

Scot is joined by Joey and J-Mak, recording roughly 90 minutes after Roma 2–0 Lazio — a victory and a result that puts Roma in fourth place with one game left. Gianluca Mancini, the unlikeliest of heroes, headed in both goals and celebrated each one in front of the Curva Sud. The Olimpico was half-empty on the blue side, a Serie A scheduling circus that left fans across the world guessing the kickoff time until Thursday night, and a red card for Wesley that had Joey nervous going into the final week.
Plus a tribute to Stephan El Shaarawy and his decade of top-corner bangers at Roma, the Champions League arithmetic with Juventus losing at home and destiny fully in Roma's hands, and what next week's trip to Verona means for a squad that has waited eight years for this moment.
One game left. Roma are fourth. It's in their hands.

Forza Roma, always.

Scot is joined by returning guest J-Mart, recording 20 minutes after Parma 2–3 Roma — a game that felt lost with three minutes to go and turned into something nobody watching will forget. The latest Roma goal in 20 seasons, a contested handball, a red card, a VAR call that flipped the script, and 11 minutes of stoppage time that aged everyone listening by a decade.
Plus the substitution that turned the night, the Koné rumours nobody wants to think about, a new name in the frame for sporting director, and a Dybala quote that landed like a punch. Two games left. Roma still have it in their hands.

Forza Roma, always.

A 4–0 win at home over Fiorentina is the focus of this episode, as Scot goes solo to break down what he calls Roma's best performance under Gasperini in Serie A this season. Goals from Mancini, Wesley, Hermoso and a Pisilli header sealed it, with Malen hitting the bar twice and a midfield three of Koné, Cristante and Pisilli running the show.
Scot then turns to Pisilli's rise — three months ago he was on his way out to Genoa or Sassuolo, now he's one of the first names on the team sheet. 82 passes against Fiorentina, 92.7% accuracy, a goal, and how the European campaign quietly turned his Roma career around.
Plus, Inter crowned champions, Juventus and Napoli held, Milan stuck on one goal in five, and a top-four race that opens right up with three to play — Parma away, the derby at home, and Hellas Verona to close.

Forza Roma, always.
