Francesco Totti hit 200 goals in Serie A

It was an historical night as Francesco Totti, the Italy's finest player in the last ten years, established a new record becoming the sixth player to score 200 goals in the Serie A ever.

Francesco Totti came off the bench yesterday to score two goals and lead AS Roma to a 4-0 victory over Torino, sending his team to the Italian Cup quarter-finals. The Roma captain's second goal of the night was the 200th of his Roma career.

Totti made his first appearance for Roma at the age of just sixteen and his talent was soon rewarded as he forced himself into a regular place in the first team. Then he was named Serie A Player of the Year in both 2000 and 2003.

Moreover Totti's influence in the squad was one of the major factors that contributed to Roma securing their first ever league title at the end of the 2001 season with the young man contributing thirteen goals for his team. Recently, in the 2006-07 season Totti scored an impressive tally of 26 goals securing the trophy for the top goal scorer in the League as well as the European Golden Boot.
