Roma continued its fine recent form with an impressive win at AC Milan, but was unable to pip Napoli to finish as runner-up.
Goals from Mohamed Salah, Stephan El Shaarawy and Emerson steered Roma to a 3-1 win over AC Milan, but the victory at San Siro was still not enough to secure a second-place finish in Serie A on Saturday.
Napoli's 4-0 win against relegated Frosinone prevented Luciano Spalletti's in-form side from pipping it to the runner-up spot behind champion Juventus, while Milan's defeat could cost it a place in Europe next season.
Having failed to climb above Sassuolo into sixth place, Cristian Brocchi's men must now beat Juventus in the Coppa Italia final next weekend if they are to qualify for the Europa League.
