AS Roma register a perfect start of the season after beating Champions Inter Milan 1-0 on Sunday night to maintain their Super Cup title. Daniele de Rossi scored the only goal of the game in the 78th minute of the game to seal the victory for the Romans. The Italian champions were punished after Nicolas Burdisso fouled Roma Captain Francesco Totti in the area to allow De Rossi blow wide the celebrations after converting his spot-kick. Both sides gave the audience a beautiful display and new comers David Suazo for Inter and Ludovic Giuly for AS Roma proved to be worth their fees. The game witnessed a bizarre incident as Roma substitute Simone Perrotta was sent off as he waited to come on to the pitch, with the officials appearing to indicate he had said something to a linesman. However the visitors still kept 11 men on the field.
