Associazione Sportiva Roma won the Coppa Italia and reached the final of the UEFA Cup, which compensated for Ottavio Bianchi's problematic league season, where Roma finished a mere 9th place, their worst season since 1979.

In the UEFA Cup, Roma reached the two-legged final, where Inter won at home by 2–0, a result which a Ruggiero Rizzitelli goal in the return leg could not cancel out. Instead, a 3–1 win at home and a draw at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris against Sampdoria secured the 1990–91 Coppa Italia, the club's seventh Coppa Italia.
