Diego Llorente: Roma fans are spectacular

Diego Llorente says he's happy with his first weeks at AS Roma.

The defender is on-loan at Roma from Leeds United.

Llorente told Radio Marca: "The truth is that the fans are one of the things that pleasantly surprised me because so many people come and, even if the athletics track doesn't allow you to see them all, it's incredible how spectacularly they encourage us every game."

Roma face Llorente's former club Real Sociedad in the Europa League tomorrow night.

"In this type of match there are moments for everyone," added Llorente. There won't be 90 minutes for one stage, but more stages and whoever is better as a team, even in individual duels and small details, can turn the match in their favour"."
