3 years back, roma beat manchester united in olimpico 2 - 1, they eliminated a very strong LYON in france 2 - 0. They beat valencia 2 - 1 in olimpico. While Inter lost to bayern in group stage and finished second and then went out in last 16.
Last season. Roma eliminated real madrid. beating them twice ( in olimpico and in madrid) . Inter went out again in last 16.
This year. Roma humiliated chelsea 3 - 1 and topped their group by 12 points. While Inter couldnt overcome a group of bremen, panathianikos and another unheard team from cyprus I forgot. If Inter didnt finish second in a crappy group like that, they were never going to face manchester united.
Last year Serie A champions are AS Roma, and not inter milan. Unfortunately, people will forget that. As in history books it will be written inter won it. The referees favored inter heavily last year.. and many referee descisions went against roma.
And some great news to totti fans. Francesco totti has entered top 10 goalscorer in serie a history ( Football records in Italy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) . 30 more goals and he breaks baggio's numbers. A huge milestone considering he has played as attacking midfielder his whole career, and switched to striker just 3 years back. |
Really? Roma beat United 2-1 ehhh, what was the score the second leg in old trafford?

I seem to have forgotten was it 7-0 or 7-1? something close to that Im sure hehe...
And they've beaten chelseaa 3-1 so what? Its just one game.. look at where is chelsea now and where is Roma now, Chelsea is competing on three fronts... I dont know if Roma is still in the Italian Cup or not.
And Regarding Italy last year, what the hell are you talking about? Inter won the calcio... if some referee calls were unfair or against roma that doesnt mean they've won the league.. this is football mistakes happen
You are mentioning me a couple of wins here and there(and disregarding a couple of humiliations here and there

), this doesnt qualify as an achievement. To me Roma isnt a major team in Europe, they only have THREE calcio in their entire history, they've never won the CL.. when Totti retires I think this team will end up like lazio (not saying that they are much better now ya3ne hehe)
And yea speaking of Totti, Im with you he is a superb Player, a world class player actually... His fatal mistake is not leaving Roma, he would've done wonders had he had a chance with a Major Club
Peace
