Teenage substitute Cristian Volpato scored one and set up another as Roma snatched a 3-1 win at 10-man Hellas Verona in Serie A. Volpato put his side ahead with two minutes remaining and set up Stephan El Shaarawy in stoppage time as Roma leapfrogged above city rival Lazio into fourth place. The two teams play each other in the capital derby next week. Verona defender Paweł Dawidowicz had scored the opener but was also sent off in the 36th minute and Nicolò Zaniolo leveled on the stroke of halftime. Monza lost 2-1 at home to Bologna in its first match since defender Pablo Marí was stabbed in a knife attack in a Milan supermarket.
