Roma manager Rudi Garcia has praised his team following their 1-0 victory over Genoa this afternoon.

The Giallorossi closed to within one point of Serie A leaders Juventus thanks to a goal from Radja Nainggolan.

"We made the most of this opportunity to go within a point of Juve. We didn't take it last week, but learned from that experience," Garcia told Sky Sport Italia.

"It is always tough to win at Genoa and will be for any other team that plays here. We had so many chances in the second half to double our advantage and relax, but 10 men can still be very dangerous on set plays."

Roma are back in action next Saturday, when they welcome AC Milan to the Stadio Olimpico.
