AS Roma suffer embarrassing defeat

AS Roma have missed out on a Champions League spot in Italy’s Serie A after an embarrassing defeat.

Coach José Mourinho’s team, who was sent to the stands by referee Mauro Piccini shortly after the break, lost sensationally 2-1 (0-1) to US Cremonese, who were at the bottom of the table on matchday 24.

Roma remain a point behind fourth-placed local rivals Lazio.

For promoted Cremonese, on the other hand, it was the first win in the first Serie A season since 1996 after nine draws and 14 defeats. Attacker Daniel Ciofani scored the winning goal in the 83rd minute with a penalty kick.
