London Oct 19 (IANS) AS Roma chief coach Eusebio Di Francesco heaped praise on his star forward Edin Dzeko following his club s three-all draw against Chelsea in the Champions League tie at the Stamford Bridge here.
The 31-year-old scored twice to help his side draw level coming from behind against Chelsea here on Wednesday.
"Dzeko is born to score these goals. He has undoubted quality and he s been too often criticised unfairly too " Di Francesco told AS Roma website.
"Beyond the goals he scored I d also point out the help he gave to his team-mates - that s something that made a difference.
"Every now and again he tends to wander into the channels but I want him to stay centrally when we attack. He did that very well today and this allowed us to be very aggressive in the face of our opponents " the 48-year-old added.
Roma will host Chelsea in the second leg of Champions League on November 1.
