Mission accomplished for AS Roma and a perfect way to celebrate Captain Francesco Totti’s 38th Birthday with a victory against Hellas Verona.  It’s a super start for Roma winning in this season all 5 games to keep up the race for the Scudetto neck to neck with Juventus having both 15 points each.   Motivation for Roma is high ahead of next week Champions League match against Manchester City on Tuesday 30 September at the Etihad Stadium in England.

Fans displaying banners and waving flags to congratulate Totti for his birthday.  The Olimpico was a total party for Totti and encouraging the squad to win the game, and they did.   Totti played the first 65 minutes and then replaced by midfielder Alessandro Florenzi.  Fans thanking Totti with a standing ovation.

A magic moment when Florenzi opened the score in the 75th minute defeating Hellas Verona goalkeeper Pierluigi Gollini with a right footed shot in the bottom right corner.  The assist by midfielder Radja Nainggolan.   It’s the second goal this season for Florenzi.

The super goal to crown the victory arriving in the  86th minute.  A mega goal from about 40 yards by forward Mattia Destro defeating goalkeeper Golini with a right footed shot to the center.   Party is on at the Olimpico and the objective to win the home game a success.   It’s Destro’s second goal this season.

Certainly, not an ideal debut in Serie A for Verona goalkeeper Pierluigi Gollini.
