Panucci's Madrid memories
Monday 18 February, 2008

On the eve of Roma's Champions League showdown against Real Madrid, Christian Panucci has relived his successful spell with the Merengues.

The 34-year-old is a crucial figure for Roma and has played over 150 games for the Giallorossi, but he still has fond memories of the club he represented between 1997 and 1999.



"We started a winning cycle during that time," the Ligurian star explained. "They were amazing times.

"We won the League, the Champions League in 1997-98, the Intercontinental Cup and the Spanish Super Cup.

"They were two and a half fantastic years that gave me the great experience of fulfilling the club's dream of conquering Europe after a 32-year wait.

"I believe that I always showed professionalism and was a hard-working and earnest player in Madrid.

"It was a great place to work due to its professional tranquillity and life there is really amazing."

There have been reports of a ferocious argument between Panucci and teammate Alberto Aquilani ahead of tomorrow's crunch match at the Stadio Olimpico, but both men are in the squad and are believed to have patched up their disagreement.

Roma (squad): Goalkeepers: Doni, Julio Sergio, Zotti
Defenders: Antunes, Cassetti, Cicinho, Ferrari, Juan, Mexes, Panucci, Tonetto
Midfielders: Aquilani, Brighi, De Rossi, Esposito, Giuly, Mancini, Perrotta, Pit, Pizarro, Taddei
Strikers: Totti, Vucinic

yup!got it.Thanks bro chrisky

HT : 1-1

a pretty caution game by both side i guess. our performance is surely way better than the Juve match, but still we need to improve.

we seem to give Real too much respects... Robben was allow way too much spaces. once again i glad that we hav DDR.

Forza Roma !!!

Robben seem quite easy passes our defences..but Doni superbly done well

2nd half sure more interesting ...becoz both of them maybe want to win the match if can ....

MANCINI 2-1 !!!!!!!

hahah!!2-1!!Forza Roma!!Mancini on fire!!
