AS Roma's new kit is the stuff of dreams - and social media has been going crazy over the design.

But they were knocked out in the semi final to Liverpool, with their former player Mohamed Salah getting on the score-sheet in the first leg.

Now they have released their third choice kit for the new season, and it is a thing of beauty.

And social media just can't get enough of the slick new design.

The club's kit sponsors are once again Nike, with a map of the city on the front of the jersey.

The map can only be seen close up, and it features their stadium, the Stadio Olimpico in Rome, who they share with close rivals Lazio.

The Italian side did well to get to the Champions League semi-final last season. They came from behind to beat Barcelona on aggregate.

The Spanish press panned Barca after the defeat. Gol said in a report:

"Historic ridicule. Enormous. Those [setbacks] that hurt. Much. A lot. Because the worst Barca of the season was eliminated from the Champions League after being humiliated by Roma.

"A humiliation that will be remembered for many years... Not even Messi could fix it. The dream of a European Cup vanishes. And the image of that Barca that seemed reliable and victorious has been left in tatters."

AS Roma didn't make a challenge for the title last season, and they'll be hopeful of getting back to winning ways once again.

Can Roma beat their semi-final finish in the Champions League this season? Let us know in the comments section.
