Good morning and welcome to Eurosport's live text coverage of the day's first Serie A fixture between Fiorentina and AS Roma at the Stadio Artemio Franchi.

Final whistle blown in Tuscany. Match drawn. Fiorentina unlucky as Totti is the hero once again.

Cesare Natali in the book for a late tackle on Totti.

Five minutes of additional to be played...

De Rossi forced off after that challenge. On comes Leandro Greco for Roma.

De Rossi down after feeling the force of Babacar's studs. Looked accidental.

Third and final change for Fiorentina. Off goes Mutu and Babacar is on his place.

Still time for someone to steal the points. Who wants to be a hero? Money on Totti anyone?

Another sub for the home side as the impressive Vargas is replaced by Gaetano D'Agostino.

Completely deserved booking for Menez after that shocking dive in the box.

Is it a penalty? Absolutely not. Disgusting act of simulation from Menez.

Fiorentina beginning to turn the screw once more as they look to clinch victory.

Roma sub. Matteo Brighi on for Perrotta.

Vincenzo Montella anxiously prowling the sidelines. He must be delighted that his side are still in this game.

After such a breathtaking encounter it appears we have reached something of a lull in roceedings. Fear of defeat creeping in perhaps?

It has been much more even in the second half with chances for both sides.

Just twenty minutes remain and this game remains delicately poised at 2-2. Roma have been fortunate to remain in contention but could easily steal the points from here.

Untidy challenge from Burdisso to bring Mutu down for a Fiorentina free kick.

Tricky one for Doni as Vargas' shot takes a bounce en route to goal but the Roma goalkeeper gathers at the second attempt.

Fiorentina make a change with Santana replaced by Adem Ljajic

Mexes in the book now for a rash challenge on Behrami.
