Roma’s top-flight clash with Palermo was chock full of talking points, with Edin Dzeko’s howler surely the miss of the season. However, the Giallorossi frontline did ultimately produce a potent display, with Dzeko himself getting on the scoresheet in a 5-0 romp. But it was a goal from former Chelsea winger Mohamed Salah which really had the Stadio Olimpico buzzing.
After being put through by on goal by Radja Nainggolan, Salah looked to have been thwarted by Palermo’s 18-year-old ‘keeper Fabrizio Alastra. However, the Egyptian attacker still managed to curl the ball into the goal from a seemingly impossible angle to make it 4-0…
Believe it or not @EdDzeko‘s miss will not be the most talked about moment from Roma’s win. Take a bow @22mosalah. https://t.co/oCCa2YBS1v
