AS Roma continues to reap the rewards of a rejuvenated Gervinho after the Cote d'Ivoire international scored the winner in its 1-0 win over Juventus in the Italian Cup quarterfinals on Tuesday.
The 27-year-old, who scored with an acrobatic finish 11 minutes from time, is enjoying a new lease of life after struggling at English side Arsenal, where his sometimes comical finishing and bizarre performances made him the object of derision.
"I am truly happy, because I scored and because we played well," said Gervinho, who will travel to Brazil to play in this summer's World Cup.
