Congrats. CSKA were bad though. Its like they were determined to give every ball back to Roma and had zero understanding of football for almost an hour of play. Invisible defence from them.
Saw bits and pieces of the game. That looked like a pretty straight forward win. Well done in earning needed points.
CSKA were so bad its difficult to be too excited. Regardless this is a great result. Furthermore I know we are supposed to want a draw in the other game, but realistically Bayern are 95% to advance so we are probably better off with them winning today. Couldn't ask for much more from md1.
Any insight on what happened in the stands? Any injuries? I remember someone here saying he is going to the game and sitting in curva nord. Hope he is fine and all.
Dunno how you guys can NOT be excited. We blew them out of the water , we smashed their head in and we ********ed them sideways with a pinch of sand. Simply splendid.
From what I've read two CSKA fans were hurt, then during that brief stop I believe CSKA fans were attacking stewards and throws flares at fans, so the riot police went up to calm things down. That's what I've heard so far.
Good result and performance but I will be hundred times more happy if Iturbe is available for Cagliari in the weekend. CL is a distraction this season and it is already hurting us it seems.
It is a distraction from the scudetto - the main goal. We already got the millions from CL by qualifying for it. Even if we reach the CL final it will probably get us 10-15 million more at max but we already have the big chunk of the money in our pockets.
Che squadra.. What a way to start the CL season. Bravo raga #ROMA— Kevin Strootman (@Kevin_strootman) September 17, 2014
Translation please... AS Roma @OfficialASRoma 6m #Garcia "Iturbe? Per lui un risentimento muscolare,era meglio uscire. Astori? Non era semplice stare in campo anche per lui" #RomaCSKA #UCL Googles version: Itrube? For him, a muscle strain , it was better to get out. Astori ? It was not easy for him to stay in the field
Iturbe? He has a muscle strain, it was better to sub him off. Astori? It was not easy to keep him on the feild
Ok, so nothing on severity...can't imagine we'll see him this week. Hopefully one week and as good as new. He was a beast.
Football Italia version: Garcia: “Astori has a sprained knee and Iturbe a muscular problem. We will have tests over the next few days and hope they are nothing too serious.”
