58′ Francesco Totti
It’s a redemption game AS Roma defeating Spain La Liga team Real Madrid . Real Madrid and AS Roma had lost their first games in Group A: Manchester United 3 – 2 AS Roma and Real Madrid 1- 1 Inter Milan. Great victory for Roma with leading Captain Francesco Totti scoring the only goal of the match delighting the fans. Classic “No Totti No Party.” We have the ex AC Milan coach and ex AS Roma player now coaching Real Madrid: Carlo Ancelotti. You bet it was an emotional game for Ancelotti and for Roma fans.
First half ending with a 0 – 0 goalless draw
AS Roma starts the second half with the same 11 players.
Rejoice!!!!! In the 58th minute there it is the one and only CAPITAN Francesco Totti defeating Real Madrid goalkeeper Diego Lopez with a right footed shot running fast enough to smack the ball in the bottom left corner! Mamma mia.. grande!!!!! Mitico! The assist is by Alessandro Florenzi coming from the right side and there it was the Roman gladiator Totti ready to lead his gladiators. NO TOTTI NO PARTY!!!!
