Egyptian forward Mohamed Salah extended his goal drought to four straight Serie A games as AS Roma were held to a 1-1 draw at home to AC Milan on Saturday.
The 23-year-old started on the bench after sustaining an injury in last Wednesday's 3-3 draw by Chievo Verona and was introduced on 56 minutes, replacing Iago Falque.
He failed to make a notable impact as Roma drew again to heap more pressure on under fire coach Rudi Garcia.
Roma defender Antonio Rudiger opened the scoring after four minutes but AC Milan's Juraj Kucka secured a share of spoils with a 50th-minute goal.
Salah, who joined Roma from English champions Chelsea in the summer, has not found the net since scoring in a 2-1 win over his former club Fiorentina, where he spent the second half of last season on loan, in October.
The 23-year-old has scored five Serie A goals and one UEFA Champions League goal so far this season.
