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

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.
