ROME (Reuters) -Tammy Abraham’s first-half strike earned AS Roma a 1-0 win over Udinese on Thursday to send them fourth in Serie A, but Lorenzo Pellegrini was sent off and will now miss the capital derby against Lazio.

England international Abraham steered in a close-range finish after 36 minutes following a fabulous assist from 19-year-old Riccardo Calafiori, who ran half the length of the pitch before beating his marker and sending in a fine cross.
