Ebrima Colley: Hellas Verona midfielder ends lifelong Serie A wait against AS Roma

Ebrima Colley netted his first Serie A goal with a second-half header as Hellas Verona crumbled 3-1 to AS Roma at Stadio Olimpico, in the process ending his wait to find the back of the net in the Italian elite division.

With the visitors down by three goals, the Gambia international who replaced Mattia Zaccagni in the 57th minute pulled one back for Ivan Juric’s men barely five minutes after his introduction.

The Yellow and Reds who came into the clash having edged Spezia 4-3 their last time out made a strong start as Gianluca Mancini put them ahead just 20 minutes into the encounter.
