Garcia rues missed chances

Roma manager Rudi Garcia has said that his team were not clinical enough during their goalless draw against Lazio.

The Giallorossi missed the opportunity to cut the gap on league leaders Juventus as they failed to make the most of their chances in the Rome derby.

"We took the initiative and kept possession, but to win games you need to be better in the final and penultimate passes," he told Sky Sport Italia. "This is what we lacked. It is an 'away' point and we have learned that it's not enough just to attack, as you must also be more determined in front of goal.

"This draw can only be considered a good result in the table. We did everything possible to win it, but at times the team that dominates makes mistakes when finishing.

"We must be careful though when reading the table not to automatically add three points, as we still have to play Parma."

Roma are currently second in the Serie A table and trail Juventus by nine points.
