Roma midfielder Rodrigo Taddei says they showed great character with victory over Parma.

Francesco Totti and Taddei struck for Roma as they went back to the top of the table.

"It's good that this team knows how to survive under pressure. We had the right focus to bring home the three points," said the Brazilian.

"Parma played well, remained concentrated and we were able to cause us problems, but we still worked hard and deserved the win.

"It was great to be able to end my goal drought and celebrate in front of the Roma fans."
