Totti made all the difference for AS Roma this weekend

Entering his 25th season for Roma, the veteran yet again proved his worth for the Italian giants as they made a stunning comeback, beating Sampdoria 3-2. The game was delayed for 80 minutes as heavy rains affected the proceedings badly.

Roma were behind 2-1 before the rain interval and in the second half, they brought on Francesco Totti and Edin Dzeko who changed the course of the match.

Totti firstly played an exquisite pass from the left wing to set up Dzeko and then slotted home the penalty in the last kick of the game. Totti has been enjoying a fine run of form in 2016 as he has scored five goals in his last eight league games.

Totti brought the sunshine to the home side in a rain-affected game as Roma maintained pressure on league leaders Juventus.
