Gambia
international and FC Bologna new signing Musa Barrow produced a man of the
match performance in his side’s thrilling 3-2 victory over AS Roma at the
Stadio Olimpico on Friday night.
The
former Hawks ace set up his teammate Riccardo Orsolini for the breakthrough
goal with a stylish out foot assist to give the visitors an early lead.
The
hosts leveled matters via Stefano Denswil’s own goal before Barrow made it 2-1
with a fierce deflected effort past the helpless Roma keeper.
Beaming
with confidence the Scorpions forward increased his tally and Bologna’s
advantage six minutes after the break – latching on to a diagonal pass cutting
inside the Roma box and neatly finding the far post to make it 3-1 and his third
goal for his new club.
The
hosts reduced the deficit through on loan Arsenal winger Henrikh Mkhitaryan’s
header 18 minutes from time.
The
former Atalanta forward was later taken off after a slight injury he sustained
and made way for his Gambian compatriot Musa Juwara to mark his Bologna league
debut four minutes from time.
Bologna
said in a statement that the Gambian international will be assessed in the
coming days after leaving the stadium with a foot injury following a heavy
challenge by Roma’s Bruno Peres. Source-GFF
