Zambian international Lameck Banda provided an assist for US Lecce, but it was not enough to prevent them from losing 2-1 to Jose Mourinho's Roma in Week 11 of the Serie A on Sunday. Roma were awarded a penalty in the 5th minute after Paulo Dybala was fouled in the box, but Romelu Lukaku missed the spot-kick. Lecce went on to take the lead in the 72nd minute through Pontus Almqvist, who was assisted by Banda. Banda was withdrawn from the match just two minutes after providing the assist, and Lecce looked to be heading for their first away win of the season. However, Roma came back to score two goals in added time. Sardar Azmoun equalized in the 92nd minute, and Lukaku scored the winner in the 94th minute. The result is a disappointing one for Lecce, who have now gone seven games without a win in all competitions.
