MILAN -- 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 Romas third of the night.The former Italy international sent the ball with pinpoint accuracy to Edin Dzeko, who lifted it over the onrushing goalkeeper.Stephan El Shaarawy and Mohamed Salah had netted in the first half and Dzeko doubled his tally in the 57th minute, shortly before Roma goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny saved Raffaele Palladinos penalty.You saw up front a change, in being more clinical -- finishing off the chances the team creates, Roma coach Luciano Spalletti said.Totti is good physically. I knew the match would be difficult, that they would defend well, and he always manages to create something out of nothing. I want the team to absorb that from him, to use him as an example of anticipating plays.Totti, who won the World Cup with Italy in 2006, has spent his whole career at Roma and is likely to retire when his contract expires at the end of the season.Roma moved up to third, two points behind league leader Juventus and one below Napoli.Heres what else happened in Serie A:---JUVENTUS 4, CAGLIARI 0Crisis, what crisis? Juventus bounced back with an emphatic 4-0 win over Cagliari to move back to the top of Serie A after Napoli could only draw at Genoa.Juventus lost its perfect start to the season on Sunday as Inter Milan came from behind to win 2-1 -- a result which came days after a goalless draw against Sevilla in the Champions League.Massimiliano Allegris side was clearly out for blood and had 10 shots on target in the first half, something which had not happened since the 2004-05 season.Were back at the top of the table, being behind is never nice, Allegri said. We had a good reaction after the defeat at San Siro and the excessive criticism.The opener came from an unlikely source as defender Daniele Rugani scored his first goal for Juventus in 22 appearances, tapping in the rebound after Marco Storari had denied Gonzalo Higuain with a stunning save.Higuain doubled Juves lead in similar cirumstances firing home after Storari had blocked Miralem Pjanics effort.Dani Alves also got his first goal in a Juventus jersey, six minutes from halftime, as he was left unmarked on the edge of the box to drive into the bottom left corner.Cagliari defender Luca Ceppitelli turned into his own net to cap a miserable night for the visitors.---PESCARA 0, TORINO 0Joe Hart almost cost his new side dearly, but nine-man Torino managed to scrape a point at Pescara.Hart almost gifted Pescara the lead just before halftime when the England goalkeeper fumbled a simple Bryan Cristante cross and almost dropped it over the line before managing to recover in the nick of time.Afriyie Acquah was sent off moments later following a second yellow card and Torino was forced to play the final 11 minutes with nine men after Giuseppe Vives was shown a straight red.Incredibly, Torino almost won it but Andrea Belotti hit the post.Pescara also hit the woodwork as it laid siege to Harts goal.---EMPOLI 0, INTER MILAN 2Mauro Icardi did it again for Inter Milan with a first-half double to help the Nerazzurri to a third successive Serie A victory.Icardi headed in Antonio Candrevas cross for his first in the 10th minute and beat the offside trap to run onto Joao Marios through-ball in the 17th for his sixth of the season.The Argentina forward has been involved in all seven of Inters goals this season, setting up Ivan Perisics winner against Juventus as well as scoring six in his past four league matches.---OTHER RESULTSSimone Verdi netted an early contender for goal of the season to help Bologna beat Sampdoria 2-0 in a match which saw both sides reduced to 10 men.The 24-year-old struck a sensational volley into the top right corner just before halftime.Khouma Babacar also scored a delightful goal -- a cheeky backheel flick -- as Fiorentina fought back twice to salvage a 2-2 draw at Udinese.Elsewhere, Chievo Verona moved up to fourth with a 2-1 victory over Sassuolo and Palermo won 1-0 at Atalanta.

Warren Gatland believes George North must put his long-term health before chasing a quick return to rugby, as investigations into his latest concussion scare continue.British and Irish Lions boss Gatland insisted Wales wing North will not be under any pressure for a quick playing return, after appearing to be knocked out during Northamptons Premiership defeat at Leicester on Saturday.Premiership Rugby and the Rugby Football Union (RFU) are investigating how North was allowed to return to Saturdays match following a Head Injury Assessment (HIA). Northampton have stood North down pending further neurological tests, but insist the 24-year-old did not fall unconscious and have since said they did not have pitchside access to all camera angles of Saturdays incident.I promise you, there will be no pressure from me in terms of getting on the field quickly, said Wales and Lions boss Gatland, of Norths well-being. His health is the most important thing, not just in the short term but long term - theres quite a bit of evidence to show that there is potentially long-term effects for people who have taken a number of knocks in contact sport.He needs to consider that, to see specialists about that to show that he is 100 per cent right. Rugby is secondary, his health is the most important thing.North was out of action for five months after suffering four blows to the head in five months between November 2014 and March 2015. The Lions wing fell heavily after a challenge from Leicester wing Adam Thompstone in Northamptons 19-11 Premiership defeat at Welford Road on Saturday.ddddddddddddNorth returned to the match following head-injury checks, leading to controversy after the television footage suggested to indicate he had been knocked out. While the Premierships governing body continue their investigation into the incident, Lions coach Gatland has insisted Norths welfare must remain paramount.I absolutely understand its concerning, hes had a few knocks in the past and you want to make sure they go through the right process to make sure that if he does play again, he is fully fit and recovered.And if he does pick up knocks in the future, it needs to be dealt with and he needs to potentially consider what is the best process for him to go through.He has stepped down in the past for a lengthy amount of time, and if he does need that again, its something people better qualified than me need to consider.I find it a bit strange; he passed the HIA. That is a bit confusing.Ive just seen the clip and heard that hes been stood down. If thats for safety reasons, just to make sure hes right, its the best scenario - to make sure theres no risk to his health.Thats the most important thing, long-term, his health. Weve made comments before - definitely he needs to put himself first, his long-term health.Northampton say they didnt see the clip, and he passed the HIA test - so from a coaching point of view, you assume the process has been followed.
