Gervinho scores as Parma succumb to Roma

Gervinho was on target in Parma’s 2-1 loss to Roma in an Italian Serie A game at Stadio Olimpico on Sunday.

After a nine-game winless run, the Crusaders claimed a 2-1 win over Fiorentina last time out, but suffered another loss despite the Ivorian's effort.

Roberto D'Aversa’s men started the game on the back foot after Lorenzo Pellegrini put the home team in front in the 35th minute.

With four minutes left to play, Gervinho leveled proceedings for the visitors, but Diego Perotti's 89th-minute strike denied them a share of the points.
