Football: Roma squeeze past Palermo

MILAN:
Roma kept alive their European qualification hopes with a hard-fought 1-0 victory at Palermo in the Serie A. Borini scored the only goal of the game after just three minutes to push the capital-based club back above Inter Milan and into sixth spot. It was just the tonic for beleaguered coach Luis Enrique following their derby defeat to Lazio last week. “We had the right attitude and we showed great concentration throughout the whole match,” said Enrique. “It was not about defence or attack — tonight the whole team did what they needed to do.”
