The goal in the 90+3 minute saved Juve from defeat. However, the crisis experienced by the Bianconeri is not over yet. They were only able to draw in two of the previous six matches in various competitions. Even at home, Luciano Spalletti's team was forced to surrender 2-0 by Como 1907.
The draw against the Giallorossi makes Juve also fail to improve the ranking. Como managed to break into the top five with 48 points. Meanwhile, Juve is one strip below Como after getting 47 points. Even though it is still stuck in sixth place, Spalletti still hopes his team can break into the Champions League zone.
"Of course I am sure about that. I used to fight for the fourth place. We do bear a heavy burden and sometimes are unlucky. But this team is growing in various aspects," Spalletti said as quoted by Football Italia.
The former coach of the Italian national team and has been the architect of Roma for four years admitted that he was disappointed with his team's poor performance. However, he was satisfied with the reaction shown by the players so that they were able to catch up.
"From the evaluation that was carried out objectively, we just got eliminated in the Champions League after playing for 120 minutes. And to get back on track certainly requires hard work. It's like climbing a mountain," he said.
Meanwhile, Roma strengthened their position in the top four despite failing to win in the home game. They are ranked fourth with 51 points.
The match itself was intense. Juve had spread the threat through Kenan Yildiz and Francisco Conceicao. But the two failed to maximize the opportunities that were created.
Roma responded with an offensive game and striker Donyell Malen almost broke Juve's goal. But goalkeeper Mattia Perin fought to save the goal.
After several failed attempts, Roma finally managed to break the deadlock through midfielder Wesley Franca in the 39th minute. The goal started from the action of Niccolo Pisili who managed to grab the ball in the midfield.
He then gave the ball to Wesley who then fired a spectacular shot that led to the top corner of the goal. Perin could only touch the ball with the tip of his finger so that it still slid into the goal.
The score changed 1-0 for Roma. Juve actually didn't lose confidence even though they conceded first. It's just that they haven't been able to equalize the score until the first half is over.
Entering the second half, Juve immediately took the initiative to attack. Even striker Jonathan David almost broke the host's goal when the match started. Furthermore, Teun Koopmeiners' free kick was also almost giving results if it was not swept away by Roma's defense.
However, Juve didn't take long to equalize. This time Conceicao managed to overcome the deadlock after welcoming Bremer's assist when the match was only three minutes. The goal of the Portuguese national team player is no less impressive. His left foot volley shot successfully penetrated the Roma defense and slid into the goal.
The match became more interesting and fierce after the 1-1 draw. Roma again played aggressively by pressing the defense of La Vecchia Signora. The efforts of Gian Piero Gasperini's troops were not in vain. The hosts regained the lead when Evan Ndicka managed to finish the opportunity in the 54th minute.
The goal started from a short corner kick taken by captain Lorenzo Pellegrini. The ball then returned to Pellegrini who then passed the ball to the front of the goal. The ball passed through defender Gianluca Mancini and was received by Ndicka to finish as a goal.
The score changed to 2-1 for Roma. The goal made the hosts more eager to pursue victory. Their efforts were not in vain because Malen finally managed to break into the Juve goal after escaping the offside trap in the 65th minute.

The match entered injury time. Roma tried to maintain the lead. However, Juve, who continued to play offensively, got another chance through Weston McKennie's free kick that led to the Roma goal.
The ball hit Ndicka who was then greeted by Federico Gatti. Through a close-range shot, Gatti who came on as a substitute successfully broke Svilar's goal.
