New AS Roma forward Paulo Dybala had a night to forget when he took on of the poorest corner kicks in football's history.

Dybala was making his second appearance for Jose Mourinho's men after joining the club on a free transfer from Juventus.

He arrived in the Italian capital with a lot of promise, but now he has a lot of work to do to mend his reputation after a failed corner kick. His effort failed to leave the ground at any point before wandering off the pitch before it could even reach the opponent's penalty area.

Roma were gearing up for the start of the Serie A season with a friendly match against Shakhtar Donetsk, winning 5-0.

Paulo Dybala given a rousing welcome by AS Roma fans

Sports Brief had earlier reported that Paulo Dybala was treated to an emperor-like welcome as he was unveiled to supporters of Serie A club AS Roma on Tuesday, July 26. The 28-year-old Argentina international joined AS Roma on a free transfer after spending seven trophy-laden years with Juventus.

The marquee signing, who declined the iconic No.10 jersey out of respect to the legendary Francesco Totti, has proved to be a massive hit among the fans before making his official debut for the Giallorossi.

Dybala broke Ronaldo's shirt sales in Italy when his No.21 shirt eclipsed CR7's initial record of 520,000 shirt sales within 24 hours on the back of his announcement as a player of AS Roma.
