JAKARTA - AS Roma are still waiting for their inaugural title since 2008. Opportunities to end the fasting title open this season.
The Roma Wolves have now reached the semifinals of the Conference League. They will face Leicester City in order to get a ticket to the top party.
Hope is now pinned on the top of the coach, Jose Mourinho. Supporters and players also hope that the touch of the Portuguese coach's hand can produce a trophy.
"Mourinho is one of the best coaches in the world! He coaches everyone with art, never gives up, always alert, unites as a group to bring home results," said AS Roma midfielder Nicolo Zaniolo, as quoted by Antara from Football Italia.
"We hope to win something with him. With a coach who knows how to win, I think we have a better chance."
AS Roma last won the championship trophy when they became the best in the Coppa Italia 2007/2008. As for the Scudetto title, the last time it was grabbed was in the 2000/2001 season.
If they win the Conference League, the Italian capital club will lift the trophy for the first time on the blue continent since the 1960/1961 season.
"Winning the Conference League would make us very proud, but this will be a starting point. I admit, 14 years without a trophy is too long," said Zaniolo.
