On January 5, the match of the 19th round of the Italian championship took place at the “Stadio Olimpico”, where “Roma” won against “Lazio” with a score of 2:0. Ukrainian forward Artem Dovbyk started in the home team and made a significant contribution to the second goal scored by his team.
Although Dovbyk did not directly score any goals, Italian journalists noted his activity and importance for the team’s collective play. However, the opinions of the press regarding the Ukrainian’s performance were divided.

“His backheel pass knocked Lazio’s defense off balance. Dovbyk could have done more, but his work is still valuable.”
IlRomanista — 7/10
“He works more sideways than facing the goal, but his pass helped make it 2:0. You saw little of Dovbyk, but that little means a lot.”
SoloLaRoma — 5.5/10
“He kept Lazio’s defense busy and allowed Pellegrini and Dybala to act as they deemed necessary, but in the second half, Dovbyk completely faded away.”

“He doesn’t score, it’s true, but his work in attack once again proves that it is fundamentally important for Roma’s play. He is the core of the futsal style that the team constantly relies on to move forward.”
