Bologna took the lead in Rome when Jonathan Rowe fired home in the 22nd minute after being set up by Santiago Castro, but Roma drew level 10 minutes later as Evan Ndicka powered in a header from a corner.

The visitors restored their aggregate advantage before halftime through a Federico Bernardeschi penalty, awarded after Stephan El Shaarawy fouled Nadir Zortea, and Castro made it 3-1 on the night shortly after the break.

Roma mounted a late fightback as Donyell Malen converted a penalty in the 69th minute following Remo Freuler’s foul on Robinio Vaz, before captain Lorenzo Pellegrini struck 10 minutes from time to force extra time.

The tie was settled in the second period of extra time when Cambiaghi found space in the area and drove a low shot past the goalkeeper to seal Bologna’s progress.
