Bruno Fernandes was given a second chance to take a penalty against Roma after Bryan Cristante encroached into the penalty area, according to Football Italia. The initial penalty was awarded after Gianluca Mancini fouled Matheus Cunha. Fernandes' first attempt was saved by Roma's third-choice goalkeeper Devis Vasquez. The referee, Jesus Gil Manzano, ordered a retake after VAR intervention.

Cristante's encroachment was detected by VAR, leading to the retake. He was the first to reach the rebound after Vasquez's initial save. Fernandes successfully converted the second penalty, kicking the ball to Vasquez's right, near the top corner, while the goalkeeper dived the opposite way.

Devis Vasquez, Roma's third-choice goalkeeper, was making his first competitive appearance due to injuries and health issues affecting the other goalkeepers, Milan Svilar and Pierluigi Gollini. Vasquez initially saved Fernandes' penalty but was unable to prevent the goal on the retake.
