Artem Dovbyk opened scoring with his first goal this season before Matias Soule added the second strike. The victory moved Roma into second place behind Napoli on goal difference. Reigning champions Napoli face AC Milan later Sunday night. Verona remains winless after five matches despite creating several scoring opportunities. Gift Orban missed a clear chance from close range in the 28th minute. The visitors sit 16th with three points under Paolo Zanetti. Roma coach Gian Piero Gasperini blamed fatigue from playing three games within one week. Pisa nearly secured their first Serie A victory since 1991 against Fiorentina but settled for a scoreless draw. Henrik Meister appeared to score but officials ruled handball via video review. [/QUOTE]
