Dovbyk Assists as Roma Come from Behind to Beat Fiorentina
Artem Dovbyk continues to make his mark in Serie A, as the Ukrainian striker provided a key assist in AS Roma’s 2–1 away win over Fiorentina in today’s league clash.
Despite falling behind early to a goal from Moise Kean, Roma — under the guidance of head coach Gian Piero Gasperini — responded with authority. Dovbyk played a crucial role in the equaliser, delivering a slick backheel to set up Matías Soulé, who smashed the ball past David De Gea.
Roma then took the lead before the break as Bryan Cristante nodded in from a corner, giving the visitors full control of the match. The Giallorossi managed the second half with maturity and composure, securing their fifth win in six games this season - AS Roma now sit top of the 2025–26 Serie A table.
