Scores brace in victory
Malen scored two goals to go with five shots (four on goal) in Sunday's 3-2 win over Parma.
Analysis: Malen gave the away side the lead through a right-footed finish in the 22nd minute before sealing the win from the penalty spot in stoppage time. He also missed a couple of chances to increase his count during yet another outstanding performance. Since arriving at Roma on loan from Aston Villa in January, the forward has exceeded every expectation, racking up 16 direct contributions in 18 appearances, and he's in superb form with six goals and two assists over the last five games.
Scores goal off bench
Malen scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal) in Wednesday's 4-3 win over Brighton.
Analysis: Malen came off the bench and needed barely a minute to make his mark, arriving in the six-yard box in the 78th minute to score home after Bart Verbruggen had saved Evann Guessand's close-range header. The finish, officially his first touch, gave Villa a two-goal lead at a moment when Brighton were pressing. He continued to stretch the home defense with runs between the lines and into the left channel, forcing Brighton's backline to drop deeper. Malen started only half of his last six appearances but is in excellent form, contributing 21 shots in that span, scoring five goals and providing one assist.
