ROME (AP)—Mirko Vucinic scored two second-half goals as AS Roma rallied to beat Lazio 2-1 in a fractious derby Sunday to reclaim the Serie A lead after Inter Milan won on Friday.
Tommaso Rocchi put Lazio ahead in the 14th minute at the Stadio Olimpico but Sergio Floccari saw his penalty saved by Roma goalkeeper Julio Sergio to prevent the host going 2-0 ahead in the 47th.
Vucinic equalized from the spot eight minutes into the second half before the Montenegro forward smashed a free kick through a hole in Lazio’s wall 10 minutes later for the winner.
With four rounds remaining, Roma leads with 71 points, one ahead of Inter, which beat 10-man Juventus 2-0. AC Milan are seven points off the lead after being beaten 2-1 by Sampdoria.
