Earlier today it emerged that Shakhtar had complained to UEFA that the Italy international had shown violent conduct towards Dmytro Chygrynskiy during a corner.
Roma's lawyer Antonio Conte revealed he had prepared a defence, noting that neither the referee nor his assistants had seen the incident and that it didn't feature in their match report.
