Tammy Abraham reveals he won bet with ex-Man Utd star Chris Smalling after Roma brace

Tammy Abraham has revealed that he is expecting a new pair of trainers gifted from AS Roma teammate Chris Smalling after the striker notched two goals during Sunday's Derby della Capitale against Lazio.

The ex-Chelsea forward is the toast of Roma after his brace helped secure victory over the club's most fierce rivals, with Abraham's first coming inside the opening 60 seconds to hand his side the dream start at the Stadio Olimpico. After leaving Stamford Bridge in the summer to join forces with Blues legend Jose Mourinho, Abraham has barely looked back - scoring 23 goals across all competitions, with 15 coming in the league.

Roma forked out £34million on the England international for the most important moments and Abraham proved he is the man for the big occasion with a double against Lazio. His first displayed some 'fox in the box' predatory instincts to tape home from close range, while his second came 20 minutes later via an emphatic volley after a delightful Rick Karsdorp cross.
