The celebrations from the Italian side were full of passion and Dybala, 29, was swarmed by his team-mates by the corner flag.
Before they reached him though, he was flattened by one of Roma‘s physios wearing training gear during the jubilation.
The physio rugby tackled Dybala to the floor, and everyone bundled on top of him.
Dybala had been an injury doubt ahead of the game after struggling with a strain to the adductor in his right thigh, but managed to get fit enough to start and grab the vital goal.
And fans on social media loved the moment between him and the physio.
One tweeted: “Roma’s physio got in there to celebrate with Paulo Dybala first 
.”
A second wrote: “Got to love the Roma physio, kit bag and all, first in amongst the celebrations with Dybala.”
A third said: “Giallorossi family!”

Roma’s finished the half in the lead but it did not last long after the start of the second half.
Mancini was at fault as he accidentally turned in a cross from Luis Ocampos into his own net to level up the scores.
