Roma Primavera manager Alberto De Rossi to Roma TV after his team’s 2-0 victory over Chelsea’s youth team:
“We’ve won at a difficult place. The quality and hard work we put in towards the youth sector is showing on the pitch. We were smarter while Chelsea were more physical? I do not know about that but we faced a team who knows what they want, we saw this in previous matches. We knew what we were up against, we are completely different with our staff and structure compared to last year.”
“We were coming off an undeserved loss in Firenze and we didn’t collect any points but the performance had been there. I have to emphasize that our menality, apart from technique, made the difference.”
