Torino had led from the 55th minute, after Karol Linetty fired them in front.
Roma manager Jose Mourinho was red carded late on for comments made towards the referee – but his side were able to rally and equalise regardless.
Andrea Belotti missed a 92nd minute penalty… only for former Manchester United midfielder Nemanja Matic to score moments later and spare his blushes.
Following Matic’s equaliser, his Serbian compatriot Radonjic got into it with stand-in Roma captain Mancini.

As Mancini tried to take a throw-in deep in his own half, Radonjic momentarily blocked his path.
The Roma ace responded by shoving him out the way, something the winger didn’t take kindly to.
As Radonjic backed away he appeared to angrily grab his crotch in Mancini’s direction as he fired words at his opponent.
The referee quickly ran over to try and de-escalate the situation – with neither player being carded for the incident.
