Rosella and Luciano proud of their men. It was also very nice to see Franco Sensi come down and celebrate.

Roma leaders' Coppa glee
Sunday 25 May, 2008
Roma chief Rosella Sensi and Coach Luciano Spalletti have hailed last night’s Coppa Italia triumph over Inter.
The Giallorossi saw Inter kill off their Scudetto dream last weekend, but they hit back to beat the champions 2-1 yesterday to lift the Cup.
It may be scant consolation for the disappointment of missing out on the biggest prize in calcio, but Roma supremo Sensi was delighted to win the Coppa Italia for the ninth time.
“This is an very important achievement because it is as deserved as the Scudetto,” she declared on Rai.
“It was a huge victory that was what we completely merited and it is an objective that so many others never reach.”
Gifted tactician Spalletti was also keen to celebrate after retaining the trophy.
“This success shows that the team are working in a certain way and that we have a great club behind us,” he beamed.
“We are professionals and we are moving forward with an important project, which will see us lift some silverware every so often.
“Inter and Roma are the two sides who have shown their value the most throughout the campaign and it was only right that they should contest this Final.”
