ROME (Reuters) - AS Roma beat Parma 2-1 at the Stadio Olimpico on Sunday to end the season in sixth place in Serie A as captain Daniele De Rossi made his final appearance for the club. However, the home side’s slim chances of Champions League qualification ended as Inter Milan, Atalanta and AC Milan recorded wins to finish above them. De Rossi was substituted inside the final 10 minutes to a standing ovation as he bowed out 18 years after his senior debut for the club. Only Francesco Totti has made more appearances for Roma, with 786, than the former Italy international. Parma had not read the script, though, as former Roma winger Gervinho struck a low finish past goalkeeper Antonio Mirante to draw the visitors level with four minutes remaining.
