Rafael Leao turned on the style defeating Verona

The Rossoneri already held down fourth place, but there was still plenty at stake because Hellas needed to outperform Spezia to either avoid relegation or tie them for a play-off spot. Roma defeated Spezia 2-1, therefore the only matchup will be between the two teams.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Ismael Bennacer both had injuries, and the Swedish player planned to bid the crowd farewell after the game because his contract would not be extended. The crowd gave him a standing ovation while shouting "GodBye," and he was clearly affected. Thomas Henry, Ondrej Duda, and Kevin Lasagna were not available. Junior Messias had a few shots deflected wide, while Theo Hernandez had his penalty claims rejected. Malick Thiaw did just enough to prevent Cyril Ngonge from setting up Adrien Tameze from nine yards out.
