In Stats: 10 numbers from Roma's 3-1 win at Genoa

1

Prior to Matchday 7, Henrikh Mkhitaryan had attempted the most shots without scoring in Serie A (18) - but he emphatically ended that run with his stunning hat-trick.

2

Mkhitaryan’s first half opener may have been his first in Serie A in 2020-21, but he has now scored in two consecutive matches after the Armenia international’s goal on Thursday in the 5-0 Europa League win over Cluj and he soon doubled, then trebled his league tally.

3

Marko Pjaca’s second half strike ended Roma’s run of three clean sheets on the bounce in all competitions and was just the second goal Pau Lopez has conceded in four matches.

6

Roma’s No. 77 headed his side into the lead from Jordan Veretout’s sumptuous corner - the sixth Serie A goal Paulo Fonseca’s team have scored from set-pieces across the first seven matchdays of 2020-21.

7

Having featured in all three of Roma’s Europa League matches this term, Lopez made his first top flight start of the campaign - after missing the Giallorossi’s last seven in Serie A.

9

Victory means Roma are now nine games unbeaten in all competitions (W6, D3) and three without defeat away from home in Serie A (W2, D1), with their only loss so far this season attributed to the 0-0 draw at Hellas Verona on Matchday 1 that was later turned into a 3-0 home win. The appeal over that game will be heard on Monday.

13

The Giallorossi haven’t lost to Genoa in Serie A since May 2014 and have claimed 33 points from a possible 39 in their 13 unbeaten matches since (W10, D3).

16

Roma have scored 16 goals across their first seven Serie A matches of a campaign for the first time since 2016-17 - the year they finished runners-up, just four points off eventual champions Juventus.

100

Mkhitaryan has now been involved in 100 goals in 197 appearances across Europe’s top-five leagues, claiming 48 goals and 52 assists.

331

Genoa’s equaliser in the 50th minute was the first goal Roma have conceded in 331 minutes of football in all competitions.
