Artem Dovbyk is still looking for his first goal for Roma.

So far his performances have been rather disappointing given the general lack of service from his teammates.

On his debut against Cagliari, he hit the crossbar, close to scoring, but was unable to score; furthermore, a shot was blocked by Scuffet.

In the match against Empoli, he had only one opportunity, but his shot was saved and then disallowed for a foul.

Against Juventus, however, he never aimed at goal.

His start is reminiscent of that of Vincenzo Montella, who took four games to score his first goal for Roma in 1999, writes Corriere della Sera.

Dovbyk hopes not to extend this negative streak and aims to break the deadlock today in the away match against Genoa.
