Roma coach Fonseca hails 'extraordinary' Lazio draw

AS Roma coach Paulo Fonseca enjoyed their 1-1 draw with Lazio.

Luis Alberto cancelled out Aleksandar Kolarov's penalty in a dramatic Derby della Capitale. Roma rattled the frame of the goal twice.

“To anyone who enjoys football, it was an extraordinary match," smiled Fonseca on Sky Sport Italia.

“These two teams created so many scoring opportunities and it was a great spectacle for the fans and neutrals. It's true, at times we were forced to go a little deeper than we wanted to, as Lazio created problems down the left flank.

“It was a spectacular Rome Derby. We Coaches always lose a few years of life during games like this, but this was an anthem for those who love the sport."
