Totti plays training match
Monday 19 January, 2009

Roma captain Francesco Totti took part in a practice match this morning and should be fit in time for Sunday’s trip to Napoli.

The 32-year-old injured his calf against Catania on December 21 and was not expected to return until late February.

In a show of strength, Totti not only played this morning, but also dribbled past five of his teammates and scored a great goal.

Mirko Vucinic and Alexander Doni were also training and should be available to Coach Luciano Spalletti this weekend.

The pair missed Roma’s visit to Torino yesterday where they won 1-0 thanks to a 92nd minute goal from Julio Baptista.

Roma are back in action on Wednesday night when they travel to Inter for the quarter-final of the Coppa Italia.
