Elsewhere, Fiorentina staked their claim for a place in next season’s Conference League as they picked up an impressive 2-0 win over AS Roma.

Prior to that, they were on a four-game losing streak across all competitions, including a 2-0 loss to Juventus in the Coppa Italia semi-finals.

With 59 points from 36 games, Fiorentina are currently eighth in the league table, three points off fifth-placed Lazio in the first automatic Conference League qualification spot.
