Roma stage comeback win

Roma have come from two goals down to defeat Genoa 4-2 at the Marassi in Serie A.

The hosts made the breakthrough as early as the seventh minute when Juraj Kucka fired in from outside the penalty box.

It became 2-0 to Genoa eight minutes later, as Bosko Jankovic turned home Luca Antonelli's headed pass.

Francesco Totti sparked Roma's comeback in the 27th minute when he shot home from the right side of the box after being teed up by Ivan Piris with a headed pass.

Pablo Osvaldo equalised on the stroke of half-time for the visitors from Rome, turning in Piris's cross from close range.

Ten minutes into the second half, Osvaldo put Roma in the lead for the first time in the match with a header from an Alessandro Florenzi cross.

Erik Lamela wrapped up the points at the Marassi for the Giallorossi with seven minutes left on the clock with a left-footed shot from close range.
