25' Santiago Castro (Bologna) 0-1
In Serie A Matchday 12 at the Stadio Olimpico, it was the visitors who broke the deadlock. Santiago Castro struck in the 25th minute to put Bologna 0-1 up. Bologna held that advantage until half-time, leaving AS Roma to chase the game after the break.

Trailing 0-1 into the second half, AS Roma finally drew level in front of their home crowd. Stephan El Shaarawy equalised in the 63rd minute to make it 1-1. The match was back on even terms, though the parity would last only three minutes.
66' Riccardo Orsolini (Bologna) 1-2
Just three minutes after AS Roma's equaliser, Bologna were back in front. Riccardo Orsolini scored in the 66th minute to make it 1-2. Bologna never relinquished the lead from that point, making this the goal that set them on course for victory.
77' Jesper Karlsson (Bologna) 1-3
With the score at 1-2, Bologna doubled their advantage in the 77th minute. Jesper Karlsson added the third to make it 1-3. Given that AS Roma pulled one back later on, this goal ultimately provided the margin that separated the two sides.
82' Stephan El Shaarawy (AS Roma) 2-3
Stephan El Shaarawy struck again in the 82nd minute, his second of the match, to cut the deficit to 2-3. That was as close as AS Roma would come, as no equaliser followed. Bologna held on for a 2-3 away win at the Stadio Olimpico.
