Roma climbed above city rivals Lazio and into an automatic Champions League place in Serie A after victory over Genoa at the Stadio Olimpico.

Seydou Doumbia and Alessandro Florenzi both found the net for Roma as they moved up to second behind Juventus, who were crowned champions on Saturday.

Lazio slipped down to third spot - a point behind Roma - after they were held to a 1-1 draw at Atalanta.

Marco Parolo equalised for Lazio after Giuseppe Biava had put Atalanta ahead.

In the day's late kick-off Napoli kept the pressure on the two teams from the Italian capital with a 3-0 home win over 10-man AC Milan

Rafael Benitez's side, who are now four points behind Lazio, won thanks to three goals in six minutes from Marek Hamsik, Gonzalo Higuain and Manolo Gabbiadini.

Milan had Mattia De Sciglio sent off after 50 seconds for a clumsy tackle tackle on Hamsik inside the box, but Higuain saw the resulting penalty saved by visiting goalkeeper Diego Lopez.

Meanwhile, Josip Ilicic's brace helped Fiorentina boost their hopes of a Europa League place with a 3-1 win over Cesena.

Fiorentina move on to 52 points and are now up to fifth, two points above Genoa, and three points above eighth-placed Inter Milan, who drew 0-0 with Chievo.

Veteran Antonio Di Natale gave Udinese a 1-0 away win over Hellas Verona.
