"Roma" club striker Gervinho jokingly stated that he would outrun sprinter Usain Bolt if they both had to dribble the ball. After the "Coppa Italia" semifinal match between the teams of "Roma" and "Napoli", the football player joked that he would outrun the famous runner in the 100 and 200-meter sprints when both have a soccer ball. By the way, in this match, the Ivory Coast national team member scored two goals, including the winning goal in the 88th minute of the match. "I would beat Bolt with the ball at my feet. Without the ball, he would be faster," Gervinho joked with "Rai Sport." "We started the match well, but after the break, we were under pressure. Napoli's goal at the beginning of the second half affected us, but we managed to fight back." "It's a great feeling to score a winning goal and celebrate with teammates and fans." "It was very important to win. We are one step closer to the final, but we shouldn't underestimate our opponents," said the 26-year-old striker. This season, Gervinho has scored 8 goals and made 7 assists in the Italian league and cup competitions.
