Rüdiger and Roma finish runners-up

Germany international Antonio Rüdiger and AS Roma finished second in Italy, meaning they will play Champions League football next year. Roma knicked a win on the final matchday thanks to a late goal from Diego Perotti (90’) to make it 3-2 against Genoa, thereby ensuring that they finished second in the table. SSC Napoli ended up just one point behind the capital city side as the season came to an end.

Antonio Rüdiger started in what was club legend Francesco Totti’s final game for Roma. The guests’ goals came through Pietro Pellegri (3’) and Darko Lazovic (79’), but Roma answered back when Edin Dzeko (10’) and Daniele De Rossi (74’) found the back of the net. Perotti grabbed the deciding goal in the dying embers of the game, by which point Totti had come on to the pitch. He finishes his career having played 785 games for Roma and scoring 306 goals over a total of 24 years.
