Roma wins 3-0 against Shakhtar and El Shaarawy back to goal. A night to remember for the Pharaoh, who spoke at the end of the match:
EL SHAARAWY A SKY
A great test of maturity.
Absolutely, we have shown that we have great character and determination. The coach warned us, Shakhtar are a tough team. We interpreted the race in the best way. We are happy, now another difficult race awaits us. But the result gives us confidence.
You had a big impact in the second half. You have wanted this goal for a long time.
Yes, I’ve been dreaming of it for a long time. I didn’t have the obsession to get there. With commitment and patience this goal arrived, I am satisfied.
You are six Italians in Rome. Mancini’s ears will be whistled tonight.
The national team is a goal of all those who play football. There is a lot of optimism on the part of everyone. We must continue on this path with great commitment.

Stephan, did you expect this first goal of your return to the Giallorossi on such an important night?
Yes, I think a great emotion was also seen from the exultation, I am happy with the goal and above all with the performance of the team. We played a really great game, with great attention so it is an important growth.
Your goals are never trivial, already your first goal in the Giallorossi and even tonight you haven’t proven us wrong.
Yes, but that’s what the coach asked me to enter with great determination and that’s what happened with the goal as well. So I headed for the door convinced I was going to hurt. I’m happy with the team’s performance and the attention we put into the defensive phase. So a great result and now another difficult match awaits us down there, first there is the championship but this result gives us a lot of confidence and hope.
The passage of the shift 60% -40%?
I don’t think so because, as the coach said, it will be difficult and the same determination will be needed because we know very well the comebacks that can be made and the matches that can change in a minute, so it will take the same determination we put in today.
Has the Pharaoh returned?
The goal gives you an extra charge, a greater determination, a boost. I’m happy.
