AS Roma continued their unbeaten run in Italy's Primavera 1 division on matchday 5 when they beat Pescara on the road by 0-3.

Afena-Gyan scored a brace within a minute (15th,16th) to increase his goal tally to six in four consecutive matches. He is the top scorer in the division with two goals above his competitors.

The 18-year-old had raving remarks from the Primavera pundits, earning him the highest rating amongst the players (7.5) after 76 minutes of action.

"Gyan (Roma) - lights up in a minute and scores two goals that break Pescara's legs. Quality, dribbling, speed, and a flair for goals are the weapons that the Giallorossi striker is showing more and more."

Roma play Empoli this weekend at home. The Giallorossi are top of the U-19 division table with 13 points after five games.
