MILAN - Roma was held to 1-1 at Palermo on Saturday in another slip-up in its quest for the Serie A title. Joe Haden Steelers Jersey .Rudi Garcias team fell three points behind Juventus after last weeks derby draw against Lazio, and the defending champion can pull further ahead on Sunday when it hosts Hellas Verona — which it beat 6-1 in the Italian Cup on Thursday.We didnt play in the first half, Garcia said. We were rooted to the spot and without any movement at all. And thats even more of a handicap if then were facing a team full of confidence, and to which we give a belated Christmas present.Fortunately the team found itself again in the second half when we changed system and ran more, playing more intensely. But we cant start to play well only after we concede. The truth is that, at the moment, were lacking consistency. The players need to change their attitude.Paulo Dybala returned from injury to stun Roma by firing Palermo ahead in the second minute following a defensive error. Mattia Destro levelled nine minutes into the second half.Palermo remained level on points with Inter Milan, which was fortunate to leave relegation-threatened Empoli with a 0-0 draw.We all have to do something more, Inter coach Roberto Mancini said. We have to have the courage to take risks and to start plays right from the back. We are Inter and we shouldnt be scared.Both are level with AC Milan in mid-table, but just five points below third-placed Lazio ahead of the rest of the weekends fixtures.Roma knew it could move provisionally level with Juventus but had key players Daniele De Rossi and Radja Nainggolan suspended, so Garcia handed rare starts to Kevin Strootman and Destro.Palermo was keen to bounce back after its club record nine-match unbeaten run ended in a 4-3 thriller at Fiorentina.The Sicilian side took the lead less than two minutes in.
