“I’m really pleased to have scored tonight, although I’m disappointed about the result," Roma starlet Cristian Volpato said after scoring against Verona. 
 
"I came on to try and change the course of the game and invent something or help someone invent something … fortunately it worked out like that. The coach [Jose Mourinho] didn’t tell me anything special.
 
"He just told me to play the way I do and to always look for that final pass. Instead I scored though! He’s a top coach. He’s won everything. Now I just try to take advice from him and learn from him.”
 
The last meeting between Spezia and Roma in a league game was on 13 December 2021.
