Thanks to a historic Gianluca Mancini, Roma won the derby.

The Roman club took all three points and now sits in fourth place, 90 minutes away from Champions League qualification.

After the match, Bryan Cristante spoke to DAZN.

The Giallorossi number 4 spoke about the victory and the league standings: “We’re happy; we’re in the position we wanted to be in. We won the derby, which is always a crucial match for us.”

Cristante then spoke about the Giallorossi’s current form: “This moment started at the beginning of the season. Since the training camp, we’ve continued to grow by following the coach’s ideas and have improved. There have been ups and downs, but we’ve done well to follow Gasperini, and now we’re there.”

Finally, the midfielder praised Gasperini’s mentality: “The coach was instrumental in instilling in us the objective of the Champions League, but we’ve always been there. We’ve followed him closely from the start, and now the final piece is missing; we deserved to be there.”
