Rome, Italy (SportsNetwork.com) - Alessandro Florenzi helped Roma strengthen its hold on second place in Serie A on Tuesday as his goal at the death gave the club a 2-1 win over Torino.

Mattia Destro's 40th-minute strike gave Roma a well-deserved halftime lead, but Ciro Immobile equalized in the 52nd minute with his league-leading 17th goal of the season.

It looked as if the two sides would split the points until Florenzi broke through in the first minute of stoppage time to rescue Roma and bring the club to 67 points on the season, nine points clear of third-place Napoli.
