    Fazio: We battled hard from the very first minute


    Federico Fazio spoke about the controversial penalty at the end of the match - but also praised the squad's spirit after the 1-1 draw in the Europa League... 

    “There was no one blocking the referee's view," the defender said. "Unfortunately we've got used to decisions like this. This year we've had lots of things like this go against us, here at the Olimpico and elsewhere."

    It wouldn't have happened with VAR though…

    “We had VAR against Cagliari and we saw what happened there. With or without VAR, the ref was two metres way and the ball clearly hit him in the face.”

    It's a shame because the match was going well and a win would have restored some calm...

    “We battled hard and were aggressive from the very first minute. It's a pity we didn't win because of this, but now we need to focus on the next game against AC Milan, which will be very important for us.”
