Roma Held to Draw, Bologna Secure Top-Four Position

AS Roma faced a setback in their pursuit of a top-four finish in Serie A following a goalless draw against Lecce. The stalemate sees Roma maintain their fifth position in the league standings, trailing fourth-placed Bologna by five points. Meanwhile, Bologna strengthened their grip on a UEFA Champions League berth with a convincing 3-0 victory over Salernitana.

In a tightly contested match, both Roma and Lecce had their opportunities to clinch victory. Lecce, in particular, created several scoring chances, with Roberto Piccoli coming close on two occasions in the first half. Roma's Bryan Cristante and Angelino also threatened the opposition goal, but ultimately, neither side could break the deadlock.

Roma's hopes of securing a late winner were dashed when Nicola Sansone missed a golden opportunity in the dying minutes. Meanwhile, Lecce's Remi Oudin nearly snatched victory with a long-range effort that grazed the crossbar in added time

With the draw, Roma finds themselves trailing Bologna in the race for Champions League qualification. Bologna, led by Thiago Motta, showcased their ambitions with a dominant performance against Salernitana, securing a comfortable victory to bolster their position in the top four.

Additionally, Cagliari and Hellas Verona played out a 1-1 draw, with Ibrahim Sulemana making an immediate impact off the bench to cancel out Federico Bonazzoli's opener for Verona. Both teams remain precariously placed above the relegation zone.

Sassuolo and Udinese, both fighting to avoid relegation, also settled for a 1-1 draw. Despite taking the lead through Gregoire Defrel, Sassuolo were pegged back by Udinese's Florian Thauvin just before halftime.
