Saelemaekers after scoring first Roma goal: “Big emotion scoring in this historic stadium.”

Alexis Saelemaekers was one of Roma’s heroes last night.

The Belgian winger opened the scoreline on an assist from Stephan El Shaarawy after earning his first start for the Giallorossi since mid-September.

After over two months out due to injury, Saelemaekers was once again able to make a positive impact on the team.

In the aftermath of the game, Saelemaekers wrote on Instagram a thank you message to the fans.

“What a team! Big emotion scoring my first goal in front of our fans in this historic stadium! Daje.”
