Roma's Cassetti: Man Utd draw a DISASTER
tribalfooball.com - March 14, 2008
Roma fullback Marco Cassetti admits drawing Manchester United in the Champions League quarterfinals is a "disaster".
Speaking from the Roma training ground on the outskirts of the city, Cassetti said: "There were many bad words spoken in our dressing room as soon as the draw was made.
"We have to play them again and once again we have to play at home first and then go to Old Trafford.
"We all know what happened there last time.
"This is a disaster for us, a nightmare.
"For us, it is the same old story."
罗马边卫卡塞蒂就冠军联赛8进4抽签发表评论:“我们遭遇了一场灾难!”
卡塞蒂承认,抽到曼联是一个灾难性的结果。在训练时接受采访:“我们所有在更衣室的人都在抱怨抽签结果!我们一而再再而三的与他们相遇,而且是先主后客。我们永远不会忘记上个赛季的经历,这简直是一场噩梦!对于我们来说,还是那个老话题,会又被提及。”
Pizarro: United Revenge Our Destiny

Roma midfielder David Pizarro has made it amply clear that the Giallorossi will be out to avenge last year's Champions League exit at the hands of Manchester United.
United sent Roma crashing out of the Champions League last season with a very humiliating 7-1 defeat at Old Trafford, something the Giallorossi can avenge after the two teams were drawn together once again.
Midfielder David Pizarro was in confident mood after the draw, and believes it is their destiny.
“I am loving having the chance to make up for past mistakes and this really is destiny," he said, speaking on the eve of the Serie A clash against Milan.
"We are ready for this occasion, as many of us were actually waiting for it.”
Of course, the two sides also met in the group stage this year, and the games were a lot closer - an indication of just how much Roma have improved. They held United 1-1 at the Olimpico, and lost 1-0 at Old Trafford despite having held their own.
“The sides know each other pretty well by now," admitted the Chilean. "The most important thing is that everyone in our squad knows that what happened last year can never happen again.
“After that quarter-final we considered our mistakes and have grown a great deal. I think that up until now the results of that process have been evident.”
He also categorically denied claims from the United camp - as has been in the past - that Roma players begged for mercy after going 6-0 down last year.
“That is completely untrue," he snapped. "I was playing in that game and we never asked anything of anyone. We are disappointed in this attitude, but will take that into consideration as well when it comes to match day.”
We have another two-and-a-half weeks to go, but it all seems to be boiling up already.
皮萨罗:我们注定要踏上复仇之路!
罗马中场皮萨罗表示,罗马全队誓报去年惨败之仇!
上赛季冠军联赛8进4,曼联在老特拉福德7-1狂扫罗马,此次抽签再次给了罗马复仇的机会。皮萨罗对抽签结果表示信心十足,而且他认为这次是宿命中的对决!在联赛对阵米兰前夜,皮萨罗表示:“我们终于获得了弥补过去所犯错误的绝佳机会。我们已经为此准备充分了,而且绝大多数罗马人已经为这一天等待良久!”

The Guardian
Sir Alex Ferguson has admitted that off-field concerns could overshadow Manchester United's Champions League quarter-final tie against Roma, after the violence that marred the meetings between the two clubs at the same stage of last season's competition.
The Premier League champions must take a continental route to the final after being paired with the Serie A high-flyers before a possible semi-final encounter with the winners of the quarter-final tie between the German side Schalke 04 and the 2006 winners, Barcelona.
弗爵爷承认,考虑到场外因素的话,会让曼联对罗马的四分之一决赛遇到麻烦。他提到了上赛季的球场暴力。此外,要想杀入决赛,他至少要两次造访欧洲大陆,无论半决赛是面对那个对手。
