Totti explained the reason for kicking Balotelli

Former "Roma" player Francesco Totti recalled the famous incident involving Mario Balotelli. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

In 2010, during the Italian Cup final against "Inter," Totti deliberately kicked opposing striker Mario Balotelli and received a red card. At that time, Totti acknowledged Balotelli's youth and excellent play but said that his arrogance was very disturbing.

He admitted that if there had been an opportunity, he would have liked to send Balotelli to the stands. Later, they discussed the incident, Totti apologized, and both of them looked back on the situation with a smile.

Francesco Totti retired in 2017. This Saturday, "Roma" will face "Inter" in a Serie A match at their home ground.

This game is generating great interest among football fans.
