One-in-15-million chance: Roma sets incredible unwanted record
Something like this seems unprecedented.
In their second UEFA Europa League group-stage match, Roma lost 0-1 to Lille. However, the biggest surprise came at the end when they missed three penalties in a row.
Details: According to xG Serie A, the chances of Roma missing three consecutive penalties are 1 in 15 million.
Dovbyk initially missed his first penalty, but the referee called for a retake. He tried again and missed once more.
Shortly after, the referee awarded a third penalty within 10 minutes. This time, Matthias Süle took the shot, but he also failed to score.
Reminder: These missed penalties cost Roma at least one point, as they couldn’t recover and ultimately lost 0-1.
