MATCH REPORT - JUVENTUS FIGHT BACK TO BEAT ROMA IN SEVEN-GOAL THRILLER
Juventus come from two goals down to beat Roma 4-3 in a thrilling contest at the Stadio Olimpico.
JUVENTUS WIN AN INCREDIBLE MATCH!
Juventus come from two goals down to beat Roma 4-3 in an epic contest at the Stadio Olimpico! Tammy Abraham, Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Lorenzo Pellegrini all scored to put Roma 3-1 up, but the fightback began in the 70th minute with Manuel Locatelli’s header making it 3-2 before two goals in the space of seven minutes with close-range strikes from Dejan Kulusevski and Mattia De Sciglio sealing all three points for Juve.
NO PENALTY!
Szczesny comes out to claw the ball away from Abraham on the run, he looked to have just about got a hand on the ball but it was a risky save!
SO CLOSE FROM PEREZ!
Perez has a shot on goal from 25-yards out but his left-footed strike flies agonisingly wide!
SIX minutes of added time.
FREE-KICK FOR ROMA
From 25-yards out, Abraham will take it but he has it teed off to him and his shot is instantly blocked. That was a waste.
SUB FOR ROMA
Mayoral is on for Pellegrini. Roma are continuing to push up the pitch...
