Roma Win Europa Conference League: Afena-Gyan Plays Down Mancini Row After Ugly 'Punch' Video
A teenage forward found himself at the centre of some bizarre scenes as Jose Mourinho’s side celebrated winning the Europa Conference League.
Felix Afena-Gyan has sought to play down any suggestion that he was involved in a post-match scuffle with team-mate Gianluca Mancini after Roma’s triumph in the Europa Conference League final, despite videos appearing to show a punch being thrown in his direction.
The Giallorrossi became inaugural winners of UEFA’s latest club competition when edging out Dutch opponents Feyenoord at Arena Kombetare in Tirana.
Nicolo Zaniolo netted the only goal of the game in Albania, sparking wild scenes of celebration, but one clip has shown combative Italy international defender Mancini apparently tangling with Afena-Gyan after getting his hands on major silverware.
