In stats: 10 notable numbers from Roma's 1-0 win over Udinese

Roma saw off Udinese courtesy of Pedro Rodriguez’s stunning first goal for the club on Saturday night, chalking up a first win of the 2020-21 Serie A season for Paulo Fonseca’s men in the process.

Here are some notable numbers from the third matchday of the new campaign...

1

Pedro’s stunning strike just before the hour mark was the Spaniard’s first in a Roma shirt - in just his third appearance - and was his first away league goal since December 2018.

2

His goal means that Pedro has now scored in two of Europe's top-five leagues in 2020, after he also found the back of the net for Chelsea against Everton in the Premier League back in March.

5

Bar the Matchday 1 trip to Hellas Verona, Roma have won five of their last six Serie A matches on the road.

7

This was Roma’s seventh win in their last eight visits to Udine and they have conceded just twice during that run, while keeping six clean sheets.

9

Antonio Mirante has now kept nine Serie A clean sheets in only 20 top-flight outings for the Giallorossi - 10 if you count this season's campaign opener against Hellas Verona, which finished 0-0 on the pitch.

13

Roma have now beaten Udinese 13 times in the last 15 meetings, a seven-year sequence that dates back to October 2013.

14

Roger Ibanez made 14 recoveries in a stunning performance from the centre-back, with partners Marash Kumbulla (13) and Gianluca Mancini (11) next on the list for most recovering tackles on either side.

98

Ibanez also had the most touches (98) and made the most tackles (four) of any player in the match.

100

This was the 100th Serie A victory of Edin Dzeko’s career, in his 174th appearance in Italy’s top tier.

462

Roma completed 462 passes on Saturday, 125 more than their hosts and at a completion rate of 85 per cent.
