Inter keep flawless record, first win for Juve
Totti has now scored in 22 consecutive seasons for Roma, and his first half strike cancelled out Gregoire Defrel’s opener, before Matteo Politano made it 2-1 to the visitors before half time.
Four years later, Totti was given the captain’s armband and hit double figures in a season for the first time, with 13 goals in 1997-98.
“We didn’t have the best start of the game, this is just our 4th game of the season and there shouldn’t be drama but we should win games like this”.
Roma and Sassuolo are next, four points back.
“Three hundred is an incredible tally”, said Garcia.
In Genoa, Juventus went ahead with an own goal from Genoa goalkeeper Eugenio Lamanna in the 37th.
Juventus enjoyed a huge slice of fortune at Genoa when Pogba volleyed against the underside of the bar from Roberto Pereyra’s cross and the ball hit Lamanna on the chest and bounced into the goal.
Juventus had gained only one point from their opening three matches but Massimiliano Allegri’s squad appears to be regaining its form, having won 2-1 at Manchester City midweek in the Champions League.
Mauro Icardi scored his first goal of the season shortly before halftime, slotting in from the edge of the area after taking a pass from prized offseason signing Geoffrey Kondogbia.
Replays, however, showed that Totti was offside.
“Inter are the first candidates alongside Roma and Juventus for the league title”.
Totti was left on the bench last week when Roma fought to a 1-1 Champions League draw with defending champions Barcelona as coach Rudi Garcia continued to use the veteran forward sparingly.
Egyptian Mohamed Salah pulled Roma level with his maiden league goal for the club four minutes after the restart and saw a great chance to win the game plucked from thin air by Consigli in the final two minutes.
Bologna head into the contest on the back of a 1-0 triumph over Frosinone, their first success of the campaign.
Inter host winless Hellas Verona on Wednesday.
