Mancini’s men sit top with a three-point lead on Fiorentina, who saw Jakub Blaszczykowski and Nikola Kalinic score one apiece in 11, late second-half minutes to secure a 2-0 home win over outclassed Bologna. Eder had given Sampdoria the lead early in the second half and Mohamed Salah scored for the second game in a row to equalise for Roma.
