Roma striker Andrea Belotti was delighted to score in their Europa League win against HJK Helsinki.

Belotti was proud to score his first goal since his free transfer from Torino.

He said, "It was a wonderful emotion to score under the Giallorossi curva, to hear the people screaming my name was magical. We got an important victory after the defeat suffered in the previous round.

"I'm happy with the performance that my team-mates and I did, this match must give us an extra boost to continue to do better.

"When you play like in the second half, with players of the calibre of (Lorenzo) Pellegrini, (Nicolo) Zaniolo and (Paulo) Dybala, everything becomes easier for a striker. We have a great coach who makes the choices, we players must respect them and show our work."
