MILAN -- Roma has transformed itself into a team that can win close games. The next step is to win what is certain to be a close race for the Serie A title.Roma moved back within four points of league leader Juventus on Monday, beating AC Milan 1-0. A win over Juve on Saturday and then some luck in the final round before the winter break could put Roma in first place to end the year.That would be a welcome change for a team that finished third last season and runner-up in each of the previous two campaigns.Last year, maybe we didnt win these kinds of games, even if we played better, said Roma midfielder Radja Nainggolan, who scored the lone goal against Milan. But this year we have more character, we have an aim and we want to believe in ourselves.After the match at Juventus, Roma will host Chievo Verona on Dec. 22. Juventus will play at relegation-threatened Crotone on the same day.To get to the top, Roma will need to take some time to rest after the physical encounter against Milan.First of all, we have to recover our strength and try to be even more balanced, because if you make a mistake they (Juventus) will punish you, Roma coach Luciano Spalletti said. In half a situation they will score two goals. I fear Juventus, as everyone does, because it is a very great team.It is Juventus efficiency in front of goal which is proving to be the difference this year.The teams performances have been somewhat below expectations, but Juventus has kept grinding out results with some clinical finishing from Gonzalo Higuain -- the Argentina forward who joined Juventus for an Italian-record 90 million euros ($100 million) after scoring a league-record 36 goals for Napoli last season.Higuain scored two goals to help Juventus beat Torino 3-1 on Sunday, despite the hosts dominating for large periods of the match and wasting several chances. His second came in the 83rd minute, with former Roma midfielder Miralem Pjanic adding another in injury time.Juventus does have depth, and that was again demonstrated after Paulo Dybala changed the match when he was brought on in the 71st minute. He helped set up the third goal for Pjanic, who himself had come on as a substitute in the 81st.When you have players like Dybala and Pjanic on the bench, its easy to get the substitutions right, Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri said.Although Milan trails Juventus by seven points, the team coached by Vincenzo Montella is far from out of the title race.It started quietly, without star names, Spalletti said of his rivals, but Montellas team has talent.Zach Allen Jersey . -- Ryan Blaney provided more evidence that Penske Racings No. Pat Tillman Youth Jersey .

This should provide us with some good momentum going forward, to stop the bleeding.Never accused of being overly mobile, Kaaya sent the Miami sideline into celebration with a 12-yard run -- the longest of his career. But most important to Miami were these Kaaya numbers: 13 straight completions to start the game, a career-high 32 completions in 47 attempts, no interceptions and getting sacked only once by a Pittsburgh defensive front that came in averaging 3.5 per game this season.So many really good things happened, I dont really know where to start, Miami coach Mark Richt said. The bottom line is we got a great victory in front of our home crowd, and Im very thankful.Stacy Coley and David Njoku each caught two touchdown passes and Ahmmon Richards finished with 144 yards receiving for Miami (5-4, 2/3 Atlantic Coast Conference). Mark Walton ran for 125 yards, the last 55 of those coming on a touchdown with 2:12 left for the Hurricanes -- who avoided becoming the first Miami team to lose five straight in the same season since 1977.It definitely gets us back on track, Miami defensive back Corn Elder said.Nathan Peterman threw for 274 yards and two touchdowns for Pitt (5-4, 2-3). Quadree Henderson had a 100-yard kickoff return for a touchdown for the Panthers, who have dropped two straight.Pitt had two costly third-quarter turnovers, a fumble deep in its own territory that Miami turned into a touchdown and then an interception in the end zone.Anytime you get two turnovers -- we had two in the third quarter which were critical -- you have a hard time winning the football game, Pitt coach Pat Narduzzi said. We gave them momentum in the third quarter. Two turnovers iin bad territory, you just cant do it.ddddddddddddKaayas four TD passes tied a career-best, and marked the first time he had that many against an ACC opponent.James Conner had a rushing touchdown for the Panthers, but was held to 40 yards on 12 carries. George Aston and Jester Weah had touchdown catches for Pitt, which led 21-20 in the second quarter before getting stopped on 10 of its next 11 drives.I feel like I didnt make enough throws on my part, Peterman said. I think that was certainty a big part of it. I have got to be better. Its a tough loss. We have to go back and realize we got beat and realize where we can get better.Pitts previous two ACC losses this season were by a combined four points. The 23-point margin was Pitts biggest loss since a 56-28 defeat against Georgia Tech on Oct. 25, 2014.THE TAKEAWAYPittsburgh: The Panthers had a surprising amount of trouble getting to Kaaya. Pittsburgh -- which came in averaging 3.5 sacks per game -- sacked him only once, thwarted by a Miami offensive line that yielded 18 during the four-game losing streak. ... When teams throw for more than 332 yards against Pitt this season, theyre 4-0. When they dont, theyre 0-5. ... Pitt lost starting defensive tackle Tyrique Jarrett midway through the second quarter.Miami: The Hurricanes came into the day with seven scoring drives this season of 10 plays or more. They had four on Saturday, three of those being touchdowns. ... Kaayas 13-for-13 start left him one shy of tying Miamis school record for consecutive completions, set in 1986 by Vinny Testaverde against Oklahoma.FINALLYOn his fifth try, Richt got his 150th career win. Hes the 10th active FBS coach with that many.UP NEXTPittsburgh: Visits Clemson on Nov. 12, in the Panthers final road game of the regular season.Miami:ad game of the regular season.Miami: Visits
