Football, Gasperini: ‘Unlucky in certain moments, but we’re not discouraged’

Turin, 8 March (LaPresse) – “They set up the game that way, it was very difficult to play, there was a lot of aggression. We responded well, we were never behind. We created more than them in a difficult game, with little play, great aggression, and many double teams and long passes. It’s not a very positive moment, even in many small scrums. We were unlucky in certain situations, but we’re not discouraged by this game.” Roma coach Gian Piero Gasperini said this to Sky Sport after the defeat at Genoa. ‘We adapted well to this type of game. The second goal came at a moment when there was no danger. In fact, after the 1-1, there was a feeling that we could win it,’ he added. “We were a little distracted and conceded a goal, but we didn’t face many shots. The defence didn’t take any risks. It’s just a moment like this, and we have to accept it. I want to highlight the extraordinary spirit of the team. I’m not worried. The spirit of these young lads is great. I have little to complain about.”
