Elsewhere, Mattia Destro scored only his second goal for AS Roma since arriving from Genoa during the close season, helping the Giallorossi to a 1-0 victory at Delfino Pescara 1936, a win that takes the capital club up to joint fifth.
The big shock of the day was Genoa’s 1-0 win at Atalanta BC thanks to Andrea Bertolacci’s first-half goal for the lowly visitors. Fellow strugglers AC Siena drew 0-0 at AC Chievo Verona.
UC Sampdoria continued their revival with a useful 1-0 win at home to Bologna, Andrea Poli netting the winner.
