Dovbyk made a splash in Serie A. The stadium in Rome was chanting his name. Video
Roma's Ukrainian forward Artem Dovbyk scored his second goal for the Italian club. The 27-year-old Ukrainian national team player scored in the home match of the 5th round of Serie A against Udinese (3:0).
In the 19th minute, the hosts organized a long positional attack. Trying to break through the opponent's defense line, Roma seemed to lose the ball, but the second-pace attack was successful.
Stefan El Shaarawy cut a precise pass to Dovbyk and Artem, having time to see where the goalkeeper was, sent a jewel-like shot into the corner.
This goal led to real ecstasy in the stands of the Olympic Stadium in Rome. The gathered fans enthusiastically shouted the Ukrainian's name three times.
In the 70th minute, Artem added an assist to his statistics, taking part in the third goal scored by Tommaso Baldanzi.
Before the final whistle, the Ukrainian scored a double, but he did it from offside.
All these actions brought Artem well-deserved recognition from the Serie A management and the trophy for the best player of the match.
We would like to remind you that Artem signed a contract with the Roman team in early August. For the sake of his transfer , our compatriot took a crazy step, refusing a large sum of money. Since then, he has managed to play in 5 matches.
According to media reports, Girona will receive almost 40 million euros for the player. At the same time, Dnipro-1 and Danish side FC Midtjylland will receive part of the money.
Dovbyk became a real sensation in the last Spanish championship draw. He joined Girona in August 2023 and immediately won a place in the first team.
Last season, Artem won the Picici Trophy, which is awarded annually to the top scorer in the Spanish football league.
Dovbyk scored 24 goals and provided 8 assists in 36 La Liga matches, which allowed him to outscore his closest competitor, Villarreal's Alexander Sierlot.
On September 4, Dovbyk was included in the list of 30 nominees for the Ballon d'Or presented by France Football magazine.
