38% Ball Possession AS ROMA and 62% Ball Possession BAYER LEVERKUSEN
AS Roma 1 – 0 Bayer Leverkusen 
62′ Edoardo Bove
👉🏆 Mission accomplished. AS Roma won the UEFA Europa League Semifinal First Leg defeating Bayer Leverkusen on Thursday 11 May 2023 at the Olimpico di Roma Stadium in Rome, Italy. The victory is thanks to the only goal by Edoardo Bove after a save by Hradecky on Abraham. The Germans find it hard to react, Rui Patricio risks the mess in the final, Cristante saves Frimpong’s conclusion on the line.
In a week’s time the return match at the BayArena, Mourinho’s boys will have two results out of three available.
Surely, it is a memorable goal for Edoardo Bove scoring his first European goal in the 62nd minute with a left footed shot to the bottom left corner. The only goal of the match and enough to claim the victory.
