Overview

• Speaking on Ukraine duty on Oct. 9, Artem Dovbyk said his only regret from the incident was not stepping up for the third kick.
• He reported that Roma’s response centered on constructive analysis rather than blame in the aftermath.
• The chance to level came late after VAR penalized Mandi for handball during the Europa League loss to Lille at the Stadio Olimpico.
• Dovbyk twice had penalties saved by Berke Ozer, both ordered retaken for encroachment, before Matias Soulé’s third attempt was also stopped.
• The rare sequence has sharpened focus on Roma’s finishing even as their defense keeps them level with Napoli at the top of Serie A.
