Roma legends give Liverpool badge the middle finger

Roma legends Bruno Conti and Roberto Pruzzo were pictured last night showing their middle finger to Liverpool’s badge at Anfield.

The pair played in the 1984 Champions League final between Roma and Liverpool that was won by the Reds after the penalty kicks and they obviously still hold a grudge.

The Giallorossi face Liverpool in the Champions League semi-final first leg at Anfield tonight.

“That Champions League final still hurts after 34 years,”a smiling Pruzzo told Premium Sport.

“That’s all I think when I think of Liverpool. That final will hurt me till the end. But that’s what football is about, you know.

“You always have to look ahead. Today I was talking with my friend Graziani about the penalty kicks saved by Grobbelaar. Ciccio took a huge responsibility and I still thank him today. Even champions make mistakes, sometimes it happens.”
