Falcao’s son hits back at Cassano over Totti comments
Paulo Roberto Falcao’s son, Giuseppe, hits back at former Roma forward Antonio Cassano, who claimed Francesco Totti will be forgotten in 20 years. ‘I still remember your coat’.
Cassano defended Luciano Spalletti and said Totti ‘will be forgotten’, pointing at Lionel Messi, Diego Maradona and Johan Cruijff as the only ‘eternal’ players.
Spalletti was met by fans chanting the former captain’s name and continued to blame the former coach when he returned to the Stadio Olimpico last weekend.

When Cassano defended the coach, he surprisingly attacked his former teammate and said Totti will be ‘forgotten in 20 years’.
That’s the comment that triggered Falcao’s son Giuseppe, as the Brazilian 68-year-old spent five years at La Lupa between 1980 and 1985 and his surname still gets attention in the Italian capital.
He posted a photo of Cassano signing with Real Madrid and said he ‘still remembers the coat’ from the presentation in 2007.
“Antó, after 40 years there are people in Rome who hear my surname and still get excited about talking about my father,” Giuseppe Falcao wrote on Twitter.
“Imagine if one can forget about Francesco… P.S. I remember very well your coat, for example.”
“Totti tra 20 anni sarà dimenticato”
Antó c’è gente a Roma che quando sente il mio cognome, a distanza di 40 anni, ancora si emoziona a parlare di mio padre…
Pensa se uno si può dimenticare di Francesco.
P.s. Io mi ricordo benissimo il tuo cappotto ad esempio.#Cassano pic.twitter.com/MYuXgXMXoF
