A.S. Roma manager Daniele De Rossi makes a very deliberate gesture of placing a water bottle in the corner of his bench zone. This was the start of "the great substitution". At 4-2 the match was effectively won (although there was one more goal to come), and any of the younger players who have not yet had some match time were about to get some.
We can see Dean Huijsen (#3) having already come off, replaced by 17 year old defender Marco Litti (#80) in the 71st minute. At the same time, Angeliño (#69) was replaced by 18 year old Mattia Della Rocca (#81).
There would be 3 more substitutions to come in the 83rd minute.
