Mats Hummels Scores Late Equalizer in Europa League Debut for AS Roma

The 35-year-old defender overcame an early penalty mistake to secure a 2-2 draw against Tottenham Hotspur in his first start for the Italian club.

Mats Hummels made his first start for AS Roma in their Europa League match against Tottenham Hotspur after joining the club in September.
The German defender initially conceded a penalty in the 5th minute, converted by Tottenham's Son Heung-min, putting Roma at an early disadvantage.
In the 91st minute, Hummels redeemed himself by scoring a close-range equalizer following a corner, securing a 2-2 draw for Roma.
Roma's coach Claudio Ranieri praised Hummels' defensive leadership and potential, despite acknowledging that he is not yet in peak form.
With six points from five matches, AS Roma remains uncertain of advancing to the next round of the Europa League, needing a strong performance in their final group stage game.
