Spezia 2-2 Roma: Comeback clinches European spot

The Giallorossi came back from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 with Spezia at the Stadio Alberto Picco, securing the point they needed to finish seventh in Serie A.

Stephan El Shaarawy and Henrikh Mkhitaryan scored the vital goals on the night - with Mkhitaryan's close range finish coming just five minutes from the finish.

With Sassuolo beating Lazio elsewhere, the point was vital in ensuring Paulo Fonseca's side did not drop down to eighth in the final standings.
