Dovbyk penalty gives Roma 1-0 win over Dynamo KyivQarabag have two players sent off in 3-0 defeat by Ajax
Artem Dovbyk’s first-half penalty earned Roma a 1-0 home victory over Dynamo Kyiv, handing the Serie A side their first victory in this season’s Europa League. Dovbyk gave Roma the lead in the 23rd minute, converting from the spot after Taras Mykhavko was penalised for pulling Tommaso Baldanzi’s shirt.
The visitors went close to equalising on several occasions, missing multiple opportunities, and had a goal disallowed just before half-time for an offside. Roma took control in the second half and continued to push forward in search of a second goal, controlling the majority of possession. The hosts nearly found the net when Eldor Shomurodov fired a shot wide from a tight angle in the closing minutes.
