Roma surged into an early 2-0 lead away to Borussia Dortmund with Paulo Dybala and Bryan Cristante, but were pegged back 2-2 and Nahuel Molina made his debut.
The summer had been largely dismal, including heavy defeats to Cardiff City and Brighton, so Gian Piero Gasperini wanted to see a very different attitude in their last test.
Wesley was injured and new signing Nahuel Molina on the bench, but otherwise it was a strong starting XI in Dortmund. The hosts started Italy internationals Luca Reggiani and Samuele Inacio.

It took only a handful of minutes for Roma to take the lead at Signal Iduna Park, as an initial cross from the right was charged down, allowing Dybala to drill home the rebound from a tricky angle.
