Egypt star winger Mohamed Salah scored a goal in AS Roma's 4-0 Europa League group-stage victory over Romania's Astra at the Stadio Olimpico on Thursday.
The Serie A side broke the deadlock after just 15 minutes through Holland midfielder Kevin Strootman, before ex-Tottenham defender Federico Fazio made it two on the stroke of half-time.
Only two minutes into the second half, Astra defender Fabricio scored an own goal for Roma's third of the night as Salah completed the rout six minutes from the hour-mark.
A typical run in behind saw Salah latch onto a superb lofted through-ball from Francesco Totti before the ex-Chelsea winger found the net at the far post.
Salah was then substituted in the 57th minute making way for Belgium midfielder Radja Nainggolan.
AS Roma take part in the Europa League after being ousted by Porto in the UEFA Champions League preliminaries.
