Fiorentina earned a shock 2-0 victory at the Olimpico, their sixth in a row, and unlucky Roma saw their hopes of a top three finish badly dented.

The Giallorossi were left cursing their fortune after rattling the woodwork three times with Edin Dzeko, Patrik Schick and Federico Fazio.

Marco Benassi opened the scoring with a scuffed finish from 12 yards, then Giovanni Simeone ran at defenders and showed good strength to stay on his feet when sandwiched between centre-backs to beat Alisson.
