Totti's top ten 17-Feb-2007
Francesco Totti broke AS Roma's appearance record this week when he made his 452nd game for the club. uefa.com pays tribute to the Giallorossi fantasista by looking back over his ten greatest games. 1 UEFA EURO 2000 final, July 2000 Man of the match in Italy's agonising defeat to France, Totti's clever backheel released Gianluca Pessotto for the Azzurri's goal. He was in fine form throughout the finals. His most sublime moment being his chipped penalty in the semi-final shoot-out against Holland. 2 AS Roma v Parma FC, December 2004 The first of Totti's two goals in this 5-1 victory took him past Roberto Pruzzo's club record of 106 goals in Serie A. Totti's first was a cool finish; his second a thunderous shot from the edge of the area. 3 S.S. Lazio v Roma, March 2002 Roma buried Lazio 5-1 in this derby. Totti, instrumental in the first three goals, rounded off the scoring with a superb chip. He is so lethal in derbies, that his then boss Fabio Capello dubbed him "A true anti-Laziale". 4 AC Milan v Roma November 2006 Playing as a lone striker, Totti annihilated Milan for Roma's first victory against the Rossoneri at the San Siro for 20 years. He scored both goals in a 2-1 win, the first a clinical finish, the second a centre-forward's header. 5 Real Madrid CF v Roma, October 2002 An inspired Totti masterminded the first Italian victory at the Bernabéu for 35 years. He scored the only goal of the match in this UEFA Champions League tie against the title holders and fizzed with creativity throughout. 6 UC Sampdoria v Roma, November 2006 He left the pitch to a standing ovation from both sets of fans after this display, in which he made two and scored two in a 4-2 win. His second, a stunning volley, was likened to Van Basten's goal at in the 1988 UEFA European Championship final. 7 AC Milan v Roma, Coppa Italia final, June 2003 Roma lost the first leg 4-1 (Totti, who else, scored) and a 2-2 draw in the second was not enough to bring the trophy home. Totti stole the match, if not the result, with two-long range strikes that put his side 2-0 up. 8 Roma v Lazio, April 1999 "If Delvecchio is Roma's poison arrow," read one match report, "Totti is the bow." Motivated for derbies as only a born Romanista can be, livewire Totti made Delvecchio's two goals and scored another in this 3-1 Serie A win. 9 UEFA European Under-21 Championship final, May 1996 Totti, by now a regular in Roma's first team, was the standout youngster of the 1996 tournament, scoring in the semi-finals against France and against Spain in their own backyard in the final. Italy prevailed in a shoot-out. 10 Italy v Ukraine, June 2006 Those who claim Totti's FIFA World Cup was merely adequate overlook this impressive quarter-final display, not to mention his penalty against Australia, and flashes of clever link-play in the semi. -- "We never hid our humble origins!"
