“What the people want, what the Coach wants and above all what we want is to show what we can do, that we are a strong team and a united one.”

Totti won the TV poll as Man of the Match with 90 per cent of the vote.

“It’s pleasing, as it means I had a good game, but the most important thing was a convincing result and we achieved that.

“In the first half I was joking on the touchline that I didn’t even feel this good at 25. It’s true, I feel in good shape and my legs don’t hurt even after 90 minutes.
