Rudi Garcia: 'Bologna clash was a parody of football'

Roma manager Rudi Garcia has slammed the decision not to postpone his side's Serie A match against Bologna following treacherous conditions at the Stadio Renato Dall'Ara.

The game was badly affected by poor weather and a waterlogged pitch as the two teams played out a 2-2 draw, and Garcia was left unimpressed that events were allowed to continue.

"It was a parody of football, a lottery rather than a football match," he told reporters.

"I'm sorry but I have nothing to say. I'll respond with the same answer to any question. This was not a football match.

"How can you play like this? It was water polo with feet, a lottery. The only positive from today is not having picked up any injuries. I can't say anything else."

Roma are currently third in the Serie A table, having missed the chance to move top of the league on Saturday evening.
