With less than five minutes left, AS Roma looked liked it was headed to a shocking and hope-eviscerating loss to Torino in Rome.
And then Francesco Totti came into the game.
As he has done so many times before, Totti delivered Rome from certain calamity and pulled a brace out of thin air to give Roma a win which keeps the side dreaming of second place or more.
The captain came into the game in the 86th minute and with his first touch of the ball -- after a free kick was deflected into his path -- he was able to find the back of the net to tie the game 2-2.
Two minutes later, Roma were given a further lifeline with a harsh penalty call which Totti powered home to give his side a 3-2 victory.
All of Rome went into delirium as tears ran down scores of fans' and players' eyes.
Bravissimo, Totti!
