Roma captain Francesco Totti has responded to his detractors in the only way he knows: by scoring a first-half hat-trick to defeat Bari at the Stadio Olimpico.

The 33-year-old was coming back from a knee injury he sustained over a month ago, and scored all three goals in 28 minutes.

"When they talk like this, they bring me fortune," Totti was quoted as saying post-match to Datasport.

"Despite my performance, they still continue to say that I am finished."

"I won't talk to the media for the rest of the day, it would be too easy," he added before scampering off.

"I'm in a hurry, excuse me."

The Giallorossi play Atalanta in their next league match.
