Daniele De Rossi felt Roma had a great performance against Juventus, “but we can’t fall asleep for 10 minutes.”
The midfielder spoke to Sky Sport Italia after a 2-1 victory at the Stadio Olimpico.
“Seeing as we fell asleep for 10 minutes and dominated for 80, we have to see the glass half-full,” said the midfielder.

The midfielder spoke to Sky Sport Italia after a 2-1 victory at the Stadio Olimpico.
“Seeing as we fell asleep for 10 minutes and dominated for 80, we have to see the glass half-full,” said the midfielder.
“It must also be said that a great team that wins the Scudetto can’t even afford to fall asleep for 10 minutes. We conceded a silly goal and had chances to go 3-0 up.
“It’s wonderful that we had the courage to play our football with heads up. Don’t forget Juve were in the Champions League Final a few months ago.
“We must have the same mentality against the smaller sides too. If we do, then we’ll be stronger than anyone.”
Have Juventus been weakened this summer after two consecutive defeats?
“The club made some choices. Andrea Pirlo is irreplaceable, while it’s hard to find players as strong as Carlos Tevez and Arturo Vidal, but above all Pirlo.
“They were also missing fundamental players like Claudio Marchisio today, so in my view they are still a strong side.”
