Lukaku stays hot in Europa League to earn Roma draw at Feyenoord
Elsewhere, a pair of Argentine veterans struck late to give their teams victories. Mauro Icardi fired home a shot from the edge of the penalty area in added time to earn Galatasaray a 3-2 home win over Sparta Prague after the Czechs had twice fought back from a goal down.
