“It is back to being a huge game, just as it was in the 1980s, though it is too early to define this a Scudetto decider,” argued Zoff.

“At the most it will inject some faith into one team and some doubts into another.”

Totti turned 38 last week and still managed to become the oldest ever goalscorer in the Champions League.

“Comparing him to the likes of Baggio, Del Piero and Platini is entirely plausible. Baggio, Del Piero and Totti are the best Italy players of the last 25 years.

“Baggio was a great goal provider with an incredible ability to slalom defenders, while Del Piero was more of a hitman.

“Totti is the most complete Number 10 in Italian football, because he has both those qualities and adds real physical strength to them.

“Can he also be compared to Platini? Totti has what it takes to be compared with anyone. He doesn’t have many trophies, which at this level is what players count, but in terms of quality, technique and physicality, Totti is Totti.”
