Niang applied the season-salvaging finish in the third minute of stoppage time in the 2-1 win at home to Roma.
M’Baye Niang saved Empoli from relegation with the dramatic stoppage-time winner in their 2-1 victory over Roma.
It ensured they finished one point clear of Frosinone, who were relegated after a 1-0 loss to Udinese, who started the day 17th place but concluded the campaign two places higher. Former Aston Villa striker Keinan Davis scored the only goal. Atalanta secured at least a fourth-placed finish with a 3-0 victory over Torino, with Ademola Lookman on the scoresheet once again alongside Gianluca Scamacca and a Mario Pasalic penalty.
Defending champions Napoli will not be in Europe after finishing 10th in the table. They ended their campaign with a goalless draw with 14th-placed Lecce.
