"I could not miss the match against Juventus, even though I was a little tired," the 29-year-old told Roma Radio. "Napoli’s win forced us to get a result, I think we played a good game.

"We had to believe in success and I think it was well deserved.

"In the last few matches Juve lost a few points, but it was because they were a little bit comfortable, they were more focused on the cups up until now.

"At the end of the day Roma-Juve is always an important game, we wanted to make a good account of ourselves.

"The Juve fans always sing insults to me, there’s a lot of history between us, but then I scored against them."
