On-song Osvaldo orchestrates Roma revival Roma claimed an impressive comeback win as they recovered from conceding two early goals to down Genoa. Juraj Kucka and Bosko Jankovic putt Luigi De Canio's side 2-0 up within a quarter of an hour, but Roma were back on terms before half-time thanks to goals from Francesco Totti and Pablo Osvaldo. Osvaldo's second gave i Giallorossi the lead for the first time the 55th minute and Erik Lamela completed a 4-2 victory late on. The home side, looking to end a run of three successive draws with a victory, could hardly have imagined a better start to the game. Kucka put them in front in the seventh minute with former Roma striker Marco Borriello taking some of the credit for a fine backheeled pass which the Genoa midfielder converted with aplomb from the edge of the penalty area. In the 15th minute, Jankovic made it two at the second attempt. His first effort, a fine volley from Borriello's cross, came back off the crossbar but, after Kucka returned the ball to him with his head, he made no mistake with another volley beating Maarten Stekelenburg. Borriello was denied a goal minutes later as Stekelenburg guarded his near post well and Roma finally responded with some attacking of their own. Totti pulled a goal back in the 28th minute with a low shot just beyond the reach of Sebastien Frey.
