Following a 2-1 victory over Bologna at the Stadio Olimpico, Roma manager Eusebio Di Francesco spoke about the clash.
"In the first half we were not in the match. Credit to Bologna who were very good. We had made a lot of technical and individual mistakes We were wrong under many points of view and we deserved to concede - however, we were lucky we went into the break levelled. We won in a way which I do not like; in the second half I modified our side and I got the answer that I wanted".
"In the first half, we were not very lucid in our choices and we were making very simple plays. This is a game that should serve as a lesson for us. But today it was really important to bring home the 3 points."
"The physical duels in the first half? We lost them in every spot of the pitch. When I say that we need to change more, it is because mental lucidity can also make a difference."
"De Rossi? We must test him day after day. We are slowly reintegrating him to the squad, today we knew that he could be used as a substitute."
