AS Roma - 'The Wolves' of Italian football

The football club of Italy's capital city, AS Roma enjoys an undisputed position as one of the leading lights in Italian professional football. With only a small blip, they have always played at the top level of national football and are considered to be a dangerous opponent by many European teams. Whether you choose to watch the team play at home or away, AS Roma tickets are available to buy or sell on StubHub.

Marvel at the huge AS Roma stadium

The main rivals of AS Roma have historically been SS Lazio, another Roman team who also play at the colossal Stadio Olimpico. Seating over 72,000, the stadium is truly a venue to be reckoned with and ensures that the atmosphere at AS Roma fixtures is absolutely incredible. Famous for their highly emotional fans, the Derby della Capitale - a competition between AS Roma and Lazio - sees some of the most extreme displays of supporter behaviour. Only a little less emotional are matches played against SSC Napoli, as well as some of the other top Italian teams, such as Juventus and AC Milan. More than capable of holding their own, the AS Roma squad has seen off many opponents and won a number of titles, including taking their first two Italian Super Cups in 2001 and 2007. AS Roma has also played in European football, including reaching finals. Whatever level the team is playing at, AS Roma tickets will assure you a match of high quality and even higher levels of emotion.

Experience another AS Roma success

Founded in 1927, AS Roma won its first Serie A in 1942, marking it out as a serious contender in Italian premier division football. Notable players on the AS Roma squad have included Francesco Totti, Giacomo Losi, Roberto Pruzzo and Gabriel Batistuta. The club is heavily tied to Rome: its imperial purple and golden crest features the colours of Rome as well as the she-wolf that plays a major part in the myth of the city's founding. The team is thus often nicknamed 'The Wolves' - an especially apt moniker given their determination and ferociousness on the pitch. Several anthems are sung by the crowd at matches, the most famous of which is probably Antonello Venditti's 'Roma Roma', a tune that never fails to whip the fans into a fever of emotion. With talented players on the pitch and amazingly loyal supporters in the stands, an AS Roma match is an experience like no other - especially if the team manages to pull off another win.
