Roma midfielder Bryan Cristante spoke ahead of tonight’s crucial return leg of the Europa League playoffs with Feyenoord.

In an interview with Roma TV, the vice-captain of the Giallorossi said, “The time has come for these great matches, which are always great fun to play. We have to win them, there is little that can be done besides winning.”

“Feyenoord is a great team, but we also have a great team and we can bring it home. Especially at the Olimpico with the kind of atmosphere that will be there tonight.”

“De Rossi? It wasn’t a given that he would do well right away. After a difficult moment and a managerial switch, he found the balance and the right keys to manage the situation. Not just the locker room, but also every detail of training and every single individual player.”

“It turned out to be the right choice by the owners, it is courageous to take on a coach with little experience but it is proving to be the right choice.”

“The sold-out Olimpico? In recent years the fans have accustomed us to such evenings at the Olimpico, the only way to thank them and show them how important this affection is for us is to win and advance to the next round.”
