Lecce and Roma will have a night to forget after missed opportunities on Monday’s Serie A clash that ended goalless draw.
Roma entered the match missing key players due to suspensions and injuries, while Lecce’s lineup also faced challenges with absentees and fitness concerns.
Despite these setbacks, both teams had their chances throughout the game.
Early on, Roma’s goalkeeper Mile Svilar was tested by Patrick Dorgu’s attempts, while Roma’s Angelino also hit the post with a free kick, but none was able to break the deadlock.
The second half saw more opportunities squandered, with Lecce missing a golden chance on the counter-attack as Dorgu failed to convert from close range.
Roma also had their share of missed opportunities, notably when Houssem Aouar couldn’t capitalize on a clear chance.
As the game neared its ending, both teams pushed for a breakthrough again.
Lecce’s Lameck Banda forced a save from Svilar, while Roma’s Nicola Sansone missed the target from a promising position.
In stoppage time, Remy Oudin’s effort for Lecce came agonizingly close to breaking the deadlock, but the match ended in a frustrating draw.
