Roma players were booed by their own fans before starting the warmup for a key Serie A game against Torino.
It kicks off at 20:45 CET (18:45 GMT) at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome.

It’s a tricky game for Roma, who lost to Fiorentina 5-1 on Sunday evening. Their coach, Ivan Juric, is on the brink of sacking.

The ex-Croatia international confirmed he had ‘heavy arguments’ with part of the dressing room after the Fiorentina defeat four days ago.
A group of angry fans confronted the team after their loss in Tuscany, but the mood in Rome is not improving as Giallorossi footballers were booed even before kick-off at the Stadio Olimpico this evening.
They were led by captain Lorenzo Pellegrini, who is not in the starting XI due to a minor physical issue but is available on the bench.
On the other hand, Roma’s best scorer, Artem Dovbyk, has had a fever and is not even on the bench, so Paulo Dybala will play as a false nine.
