Totti showing no signs of age as 40th birthday approaches (The Associated Press)

It might be just days before his 40th birthday but Roma forward Francesco Totti is showing no signs of slowing down. On Wednesday, Totti was handed his first start in almost exactly a year and he helped his side to a 4-0 win over newly-promoted Crotone. Totti, who will celebrate his landmark birthday next Tuesday, did not get on the scoresheet himself but he lit up the Stadio Olimpico early in the second half with a splendid long-range pass for Roma's third of the night.
