Matteo Brighi scored a goal in each half to help Roma beat Cluj 3-1 and overtake Chelsea at the top of Champions League Group A on Wednesday. Captain Francesco Totti scored the Giallorossi’s other goal with a stunning free kick, while Yssouf Kone scored a consolation for the Romanians with a header. Roma went top of Group A with the win at Cluj and have nine points ahead of their final match at home to Bordeaux. Chelsea, who are at home to Cluj, have eight while Bordeaux are on seven and need to beat the Italian side to progress. Cluj have four points. Roma’s victory made up for their shock 2-1 home defeat to Cluj in the group opener at the Stadio Olimpico in September.
