di Francesco, Florenzi reveal Roma’s strategy against Shakhtar
Roma are hosting the second leg trailing 1-2 after a miserable second half in Ukraine left them reeling in leg 1.
Here’s what they had to say:
Florenzi opened by saying, “Tomorrow is an important match, one that means a lot to us players and to the club. If we were to get through we'd be in the quarter-finals for the fourth time in the club's history. We'll give everything we have."
Di Francesco revealed his club’s strategy for making it to the next round:
"We will only get through to the quarter-finals if we produce a great collective performance. We have a top striker in Edin Dzeko who is capable of scoring and supplying key assists like he did in the away leg."
He then revealed Roma’s key to success:
“If tomorrow we can repeat the performance we put in against Napoli, then I think that will be a significant step forward for us. Especially from a mental standpoint, it will show we have found a bit more consistency."
