Fiorentina striker Mario Gomez welcomes Roma Euro tie

Fiorentina striker Mario Gomez has welcomed their Europa League draw with AS Roma.

Gomez has no problem facing another Italian team. "We're happy with the draw, why should we be the ones worried? They're probably more worried than we are," smiled Gomez.

"Roma are a very strong side, but so are Tottenham and we knocked them out. If we want to win the trophy, it's only right that we face the best teams. If I could've picked, I'd have liked to take on Wolfsburg. They did well last year and this season are even better."
