The experimental trident attack did not work wonders as Roma emerged with a 2-1 defeat at the start of their Mexican tour.
Fabio Capello’s men were beaten by club side Santos Laguna, their first pre-season slip-up so far.
Francesco Totti started the game alongside Vincenzo Montella and Antonio Cassano, but the fireworks failed to ignite.
Reyes’ angled drive opened the scoring before a Borgetti penalty for Christian Chivu’s shirt tug.
Roma were only able to net a consolation goal in the final minutes thanks to a generous penalty for Davide Bombardini.
Despite giving away a spot-kick, former Ajax hero Chivu (pictured) was cheered on by the crowd and almost scored with a spectacular scissor-kick from 60 metres.
It’s reported this Mexican tour is not going according to plan.
The team had already checked its luggage into the airport for a flight to Necaxa, where they will play tomorrow, when it emerged the plane was not ready.
The hotel rooms in Torreon had to be re-booked late at night and the players will travel later today.
