Roma boss Garcia gutted after "pyrrhic victory" over Napoli

AS Roma coach Rudi Garcia was left upset after their victory over Napoli. Garcia saw Roma earn "a pyrrhic victory" 2-0 over Napoli after losing Francesco Totti and Gervinho.

"I am happy with the win, but it was a pyrrhic victory, as we lost Totti and Gervinho. They are muscular problems and will require further tests," the Coach told Sky Sport Italia.

"Nonetheless, I am happy because we won and in a tough game like this you need to take every chance on set plays."

Daniele De Rossi performed an acrobatic goalline clearance on Goran Pandev while it was still goalless.

"It is a symbol, and I won't forget De Sanctis performed a great save, while Daniele helped him. Seeing Morgan thank Daniele afterwards was a great sign."
