El Shaarawy: Only 7th player to score in first two Roma appearances

The Italy international capped his Roma debut with a gorgeous flicked finish against Frosinone before getting on the scoresheet at Mapei Stadium on Tuesday night.

The Pharaoh follows in the footsteps of the following half a dozen Roma men.

Mario Tontodonati - Tontodonati scored on his debut in a 2-1 victory at Bologna on 19 September 1948, before hitting two in the 4-2 home win over Triestina a week later.

Guido Ugolotti – He found the net in the 2-1 home win over Torino on 11 September 1977 and repeated the trick seven days later in a 3-2 loss at Perugia. He even scored in a third straight game, bagging the winner against Foggia in Week 3.

Francesco Vincenzi – He struck a double on his Giallorossi bow in a 3-1 Coppa Italia victory at Rimini on 21 August. Vincenzi then hit the winner in the same competition at Arezzo three days later.

Renato Portaluppi – Portaluppi was in the goals in the 3-1 win at Prato in the Coppa Italia on 21 August 1988. He then found the net in the cup again three days later, with Roma winning 3-2 at Empoli.

Sinisa Mihajlovic – The Serb struck on his first appearance for the club in the Coppa Italia in a 4-1 rout of Taranto on 26 August (the match also featured a debut goal from Silvano Benedetti). He scored again in the following match, a 3-1 victory over the same opposition on 2 September.

Christian Chivu – The Romanian found the net from a free-kick in a 5-0 home win over Brescia on 14 September 2003, then scored another set-piece in the 2-2 draw at Juventus a week later.
