Alessandro Florenzi gave Roma the lead in the 25th minute of the match when he fired a spectacular bicycle kick into the net.
Gervinho should have doubled their advantage moments later, but after bursting into the box, he fired his shot straight at the keeper.
Roma soon scored their second goal of the afternoon, as Francesco Totti picked up the ball on edge of the box following another run from Gervinho and placed an effort into the bottom corner of the net.

Two minutes before the break, they scored their third. Florenzi delivered a low cross into the box and Maicon arrived to slot the ball past the keeper.
Roma continued the second half as they had ended the first, and Mehdi Benatia further extended their lead when he headed home following Totti's corner.
Nainggolan looked to add a fifth goal for his side late on, but saw his powerful effort pushed behind by Perin.
