Feyenoord manager Arne Slot was asked about his thoughts on the Derby della Capitale involving Roma and Lazio.

Having been beaten by Roma on multiple occasions over the last two years and following his side’s defeat to Lazio in the Champions League on Tuesday night, Slot addressed the highly anticipated Derby in Rome.

“They are both great teams, so may the best man win,” Slot told reporters after losing to Lazio at the Stadio Olimpico. “It this my diplomatic response? Yes, but I don’t want to go back to certain controversies from last year.”
