Recap: Cengiz scores first goal as Giallorossi win thriller

GIM

Substitute Marco Tumminello scored deep into injury time to secure a 3-2 win for Roma against Tottenham Hotspur on Tuesday night - ensuring a dramatic turnaround after the Giallorossi had briefly threatened to throw away a two-goal lead.

In a hugely-eventful finish at the Red Bull Arena in New Jersey, the Premier League side scored twice in the final three minutes to peg back Eusebio Di Francesco's men just as victory looked assured - only for Tumminello to pop up with almost the final kick of the game to deliver one final twist.

It ensured the result matched a positive performance for Roma, with Diego Perotti converting an early penalty and then second half-substitute Cengiz Under grabbing his first goal for the club midway through the second period.

With the game appearing over a couple of scrambled goals from Harry Winks and Vincent Jansen suddenly changed the balance completely - at least until Tumminello appeared inside the six-yard box to steer home Kevin Strootman's cross.

Roma's third and final game of the International Champions Cup arrives on Sunday, as they face rivals Juventus at Foxborough.
