Torino 0-2 Roma: Ranieri bows out with Europa League spot
Claudio Ranieri ends his career steering Roma to the Europa League spot, as they had been fourth for much of the evening until a Juventus turnaround. The Giallorossi knew they had to win and hope that Juventus slipped up in Venice to snatch fourth place and Champions League qualification, but also that Lazio were right behind eager to steal fifth and the Europa League spot. Advertisement Artem Dovbyk returned from injury, but was only fit for the bench, with Paulo Dybala and Lorenzo Pellegrini out for several months. Toro's lengthy absentee list included Duvan Zapata, Yann Karamoh, Borna Sosa, Saul Coco and Alieu Njie. See how it all unfolded on the Liveblog. Eldor Shomurodov came so close to giving Roma the lead after 120 seconds, but his angled drive thumped the upright. Leandro Paredes also blasted over, while the Argentine lost possession for Che Adams to drill wide from a promising position. epa12135321 Roma's Leandro Paredes scores a goal during the Italian soccer Serie A match between Torino FC vs AS Roma at the Olimpico Grande Torino Stadium in Turin, Italy, 25 May 2025. EPA-EFE/ALESSANDRO DI MARCO Ali Dembele made a very clumsy intervention on Alexis Saelemaekers and brought him down for a Roma penalty, which Paredes converted hard into the side-netting, despite Vanja Milinkovic-Savic guessing the right way.

Manu Kone's scorcher was deflected inches over, while Matias Soulé couldn't keep his finish down from the edge of the area.

Eljif Elmas had penalty appeals, but the contact with Shomurodov seemed to be outside the box, while Soulé saw his trademark curler smack the crossbar at the far top corner. Advertisement Perciun stung Mile Svilar's gloves and Bryan Cristante had the ball in the net on 83 minutes with the inside of the boot from the edge of the area, but it was disallowed as Angelino's kneecap was offside before the assist. Moments later, Che Adams saw his daisy-cutter smack the base of the upright from outside the box.

Shomurodov chasing personal scoring record
Roma will play their last hopes of qualifying for the Champions League in the final act of the season. Tonight, at 8:45 p.m., the Giallorossi will face Torino in the 38th matchday of Serie A, with only one possible result to continue believing in fourth place: victory. Advertisement Claudio Ranieri will once again rely on Eldor Shomurodov to lead the attack. The Uzbek striker, as reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport, will be the leading striker in the starting eleven due to Dovbyk's recent injury which has forced him to go to the bench. Close to leaving twice, Shomurodov has managed to carve out an important space for himself in recent weeks, also taking advantage of Dovbyk's inconsistent performances. Now the former Genoa player wants to close the year on a high note, chasing his eighth goal in the league that would allow him to equal his best tally in Serie A.
