AS Roma welcome fellow Champions League hopefuls Juventus to the Stadio Olimpico for the 7.45 BST kick-off from Serie A.

And that's it - Juve close the gap on Roma in the race for Europe.

Three minutes of added time.

De Rossi finds Totti's run down the right channel but the Roma captain fails to get hold of his effort and it trickles past the far post. Looks like Juve have an invaluable win.

Melo has been superb tonight.

Di Rossi misses from two yards following a Totti knock down but he is saved by the assistant referee's flag.

Time not on Roma's side as Riise fires an effort across the box - but it is cleared.

Sørensen for Grosso, who had a hand in both goals.

Roma have upped the urgency but look unlikely to create anything here.

Roma will be wondering how they are two goals down here.

Taddei and Borriello on for Vucinic and Perrotta just before the goal.

Roma are carved open. 2-0. Poor defending. One straight ball from the back and Matri is clean through on goal. The January signing remains composed and tucks the ball between the legs of Doni.

Grosso again leads a break for Juve but the final ball just lacks direction and the chance has gone. Roma break and Totti slips Menez into the area Grosso just vacated but his effort crashes against the bar.

Montella looking at a double substitution to inject life into his side.

De Rossi's effort from distance never looks like threatening goal.

Grosso plays Matri through in on goal - Doni comes out and the forward lays it back to Pepe with the keeper stranded but Pepe takes too long to get his shot off. Chance.

Roma lacking the incisiveness of the first forty five.

Totti looks for an immediate riposte but his pass is over hit.

GREAT GOAL. Matri slips Grosso in down the left, the Italian left back remains composed and digs out a ball to Krasic at the back post, who shapes and volleys past Doni to give the Old Lady the advantage.

The visitors are looking more composed here without threatening a great deal - they have taken the sting out of Roma's play but have yet to work Doni this half.
