Roma boss Garcia had no problem with Florenzi's grandmother goal celebration

AS Roma boss Rudi Garcia had no problem with Alessandro Florenzi's goal celebrations during victory over Cagliari.

Florenzi ran into the stands to hug his 82-year-old grandmother, who was making her first ever trip to the Stadio Olimpico.

Garcia said: "His celebration was an emotional one. He'll pay a fine for the booking, but I think he'll believe it was well worth it.

"We are playing every three days now and have to be concentrated at all times. I am happy with the goals and another clean sheet. Now we have to look forward."
