With the game poised at 1-1, following a third minute opener from Pietro Pellegri, the youngest ever goalscorer in Serie A history, and a reply from Edin Dzeko in the first half, Totti entered the fray in the 53rd minute.
It wasn't the ultimate fairytale we were all hoping for, but Totti did play his part in helping his beloved Giallorossi pip Napoli to second place and the final Champions League group stage place available to those in the top tier of Italian football.
So what will his next move be? Totti is rumoured to have an offer on the table to becoming a director at his beloved club, but hasn't officially retired as of yet.
And there's talk, namely from Rai Sport presenter Paula Ferrari that Totti will leave Roma for Miami FC in the United States.
