Roma defender Gianluca Mancini urged his side to remain focused in today’s afternoon Serie A fixture with Monza.

In a pre-match interview with Sky Sport, Mancini declared, “Today, like any other match, we must approach it with the right mindset and be focused.”

“All matches in Serie A are difficult, today we have a strong opponent who is doing well at the moment. We are coming off three victories in a row, we need points and we will be fully concentrated.”

“We improved our defensive solidity because the whole team started to pay more attention. The defensive phase concerns the whole team. We have raised our focus and we must continue like this.”

“The sold-out crowd? The Olimpico is always on our side and ready to encourage us even in the most difficult moments. They are always with us and we will try to do our best for them.”
