«It was a very important success, that’s why I celebrated like I never had before». And radiant, Daniele De Rossi, at the end of the injury time victory against Udinese: 3 points arrived at the last gasp thanks to Cristante’s goal, which brings the Giallorossi back to +4 on Atalanta, who have a game in hand (against Fiorentina). «Sometimes karma – the words of DDR – gives you back a succulent gift. We felt we had the right to ask the League for help and we were annoyed that we were denied the possibility of having an extra day of rest to play against Bayer Leverkusen: a unique precedent in Italy. This moved something in us.” […] With yesterday’s victory de Rossi he reached 29 points with Roma in 13 games, the same as Mourinho achieved in 20. «It’s not a competition to see who gets the most points between me and him, it’s clear that we’re doing well even if someone forgets every now and then. We have reopened a discussion that when I arrived seemed a bit closed, I think the boys are doing something important and they would have done well even if Mourinho had stayed, getting their heads out of that bad situation even without me.”
