Totti blast Platini

Roma captain Francesco Totti has hit back at critics after his double against Sampdoria yesterday.

Lega Calcio President Antonio Matarrese has questioned Totti's decision to temporarily halt his international career following World Cup glory.
While Michel Platini, a former Juventus legend, has also blasted the No 10's snubbing of the national side and questioned his true worth as a player.
Yet Totti looked to silence both of them at Marassi this afternoon with an inspired display and two goals ? one as good as Marco Van Basten's Euro '88 volley.
"I dedicate each of these goals to Platini and Matarrese," he stated. "That way they can come and watch Roma without talking rubbish."
The captain's second goal was truly exceptional and comes just hours after Ronaldinho's wonder strike for Barcelona against Villarreal.
"My goals today are doubly satisfying," he added. "It is great to score in this way and the fans deserve to be rewarded for the price of their ticket.
"Ronaldinho? I've not seen his goal yet, but people tell me it was fantastic. Let's say I tried to reply to it."
