Totti scores 250th league goal in loss for Giallorossi


In Italy, Roma would travel to Torino in a match taking place two days shy of captain Francesco Totti's 40th birthday. The ageless wonder would celebrate by giving himself an early present, and reaching a milestone in his Serie A career.

After falling behind 2-0, Roma are awarded a penalty in the 55th minute. Diego Perotti tripped up in the box.

Totti fires in the penalty kick. It's his 250th league goal for Roma, as well as his second of the season. The Italian striker now in his 25th season at his only professional club, and sending Joe Hart the wrong way.

Totti's moment does not spark a comeback. Iago Falque scores the hosts third goal 10 minutes later, on a looping shot that hits a defender as Torino beat Roma 3-1.

In Sunday's other matches... Fiorentina drew 0-0 with AC Milan. Genoa did likewise against Pescara. Ivan Perisic scored the equalizer as Inter Milan salvaged a draw versus Bologna. Lazio defeated Empoli 2-0. Sassuolo topped Udinese 1-0.
