Roma have drawn Arsenal in the next round of the UEFA Champions League in a match that will surely be a crowd-pleaser, with both sides playing an entertaining brand of attacking football.

The Giallorossi captain reacted well to the news of English opposition, and he is looking forward to a difficult game.

“It will certainly be a tough game, but also very exciting. At this level they are all great teams. We are expecting a difficult encounter,” Totti told the press after the draw.

The captain has been credited with his side's resurgence in Europe and in the league after Roma made a terrible start to the campaign while Totti was out injured.

The last 16 draw has pitted all the Italian clubs against English sides considering the fact that Juventus will be facing Chelsea, while Inter have been paired with Manchester United.
