In front of a partisan crowd at the Juventus Stadium, the Giallorossi bounced back from the setback of Dusan Vlahovic's second-minute free-kick - as Abraham headed home from Paulo Dybala's inventive ball back into the middle to salvage a point.
Jose Mourinho's side were quiet in the first half but undoubtedly grew into the contest in the second, enjoying arguably the better of the chances in the closing stages - even if a winner for either side often looked somewhat unlikely.

The build-up to the contest was dominated by discussions about Paulo Dybala's return to his old club, but the Argentine would have to wait for his moment to make an impact on the game.
That was because the Giallorossi were almost immediately on the back foot, after Vlahovic lashed home a scintillating free-kick after less than 90 seconds to give Juve the lead.
That only buoyed the home crowd, with the Bianconeri continuing to push forward in search of another - as Manuel Locatelli even had a goal belatedly ruled out by VAR for a handball in the build-up.
If that was a let-off for Roma then they made the most of it. With Nicola Zalewski and Stephan El Shaarawy introduced at the break, Mourinho's side changed shape and with it seemed to slowly find an increased threat - with Dybala eventually inventing the crucial pass that allowed Abraham to head home from close range.
With 20 minutes remaining at that point, as time went on both sides seemed content to settle for the point they had.
The Giallorossi are back in action on Tuesday: they will behosting Monza at the Stadio Olimpico.
